Catmilk - The Man Who Was A Horse / Alabar

Catmilk perform ‘The Man Who Was A Horse’ and ‘Alabar’ at Metronome for ´óÏó´«Ã½ Introducing East Midlands.

The Nottingham based fourpiece, Catmilk, balance brooding folk with a careful hit of nostalgic 90s grunge. Alex Milne’s lyrics are scattered with thoughtful story-telling, exploring surreal dreamscapes tainted with the sharp grit of a city backdrop. Weaving delicate vocals around stirring melodies and meditative, rolling riffs, Catmilk’s arrangements are reminiscent of bands like Smog, Mazzy Star and Big Thief.

‘The Man Who Was A Horse’ meanders through its verses like a collection of dream-like short stories. The lyrics linger in moments from childhood.
