I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music. - George Eliot
BIO
"Caitlin Harnett is one of the freshest talents I've heard in a long time. Her EP is extraordinarily good. I'm sure that an enormous career is going to grow from this Tiny Spark" - Jeff Jenkins (Inpress, RRR)
2009 looks set to be a busy year for Sydney Singer/Songwriter Caitlin Harnett. Caitlin is releasing her debut EP ‘Tiny Spark’ . The beautifully crafted 6 track EP, which was recorded with Matt Fell at Love Hz Studios, contains 5 originals and a cover of the June Carter & Johnny Cash classic "Jackson".
Caitlin is just 18 years old, but the maturity and credibility of her songwriting has quickly captured the attention of audiences and music industry insiders. Following on from her Young Songwriters Award at the 2008 Apollo Bay Music Festival and grand final appearance in the Telstra Road to Tamworth, the young artist has been signed to a publishing deal with Australia's largest independent publishing company, Mushroom Music Publishing.
March saw Caitlin make her first appearance at the Port Fairy Folk Festival, perform shows in Melbourne and two songs from the EP were played on ‘Home & Away’. In May and June Caitlin will be supporting both Karl Broadie and The Huckleberry Swedes as they tour and launch their new albums.
Caitlin has a natural stage presence that draws you in and a beautiful voice that compels you to listen. Her performances reveal a wisdom and warmth that belies her youth. It’s “fantastic, fragile pop” with a touch of folk and suggests early-life exposure to somebody's really good record collection.
