To start the year, Catriona gave sold-out harmonica workshops for The Winnipeg Folk Festival.
As a member of Halifax indie-rock favourites, Plumtree, Catriona toured Canada with Thrush Hermit and The Weakerthans and was a VIP guest on The Price is Right.

wow! i am so excited!
*big happy eyes*
i was at work and my girlfriend told me you posted on my myspace and that made me happy, -then- she told me you were playing here and that made me VERY happy and when i got home from work my roomate screamed 'the bassist from plumtree is playing here!!!!' and i smiled a healthy grin.
you bet your bottom dollar i'll be there. hehe.
Hey, cheers for the add, liked the tunes! You need to get a plumtree myspace page going, your albums kept me (kinda) sane on all those bus trips to and from college...you guys are partly responsible for me dropping out of college and a normal job and instead trying to make a living taking photos of musicians (my parents would like a word with you....).
