"The self-assured Elizabeth and the Catapult prove
what a sultry-voiced Greenwich Village habitue with a Norah Jones jones should
do: Just let it flow."
-The Boston Globe
"Elizabeth & the Catapult have managed to hurl themselves pretty far through word-of-mouth buzz. The unsigned local trio, led by vocalist Elizabeth Ziman and her Aimee Mann–like drawl, has built a loyal local fanbase via jazzy, buoyant pop songs; they're now making frequent appearances on NPR's Studio 360. Check out jaunty earworm "Momma's Boy," off their self-titled EP—these three won't be flying under the radar for long." -The Village Voice

The Catapult's self-titled EP Today!
Thanks for the add. you guys are officially are on my top friends because that's how much I'm loving the sound...don't stop the music and when you get a chance come to SF Bay Area in California.
Ok so, lets talk about how amazing you guys were on Saturday night! Based on the size of the crowd alone you could tell how love you guys are. I was a bit sad though because word has gotten out and you can no longer be my super duper secret! Oh well I can make the sacrifice because everyone needs to know about you guys!
New U.S. Currency Expires If Not Spent In Two Weeks
WASHINGTON, DC— Seeking to stimulate consumer spending, the Treasury Department unveiled "QuikCash," a new U.S. currency that expires two weeks from the date of its issuance. "America, get ready to spend," Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill said Monday. "QuikCash is our exciting new way to jump-start the economy while telling our valued citizens, 'Hey, go get yourself something nice. Now. '"
you guys were awesome tonight! I spoke to you (elizabeth) for a second, but you probably dont remember :P haha. but anyway, i hope you play again soon :)
Just the best clip from the "Blues Brothers" Not making any statements but this thing happened while I was a wee folk there, just enjoy, crap, the Irish are not Nazi's, we are IRA, lol J/
OH man what an amazing woman you are! Super show tonight. Super. I'm so happy that my parents finally got to see, in top form (as always), the band I'm always talking about!
We are recording right now and supposed to have one song mixed and mastered tomorrow. I'll send it your way when it done! (You Let Me Down is the name of it ... it's on the erinaustin. com/band site thingy) Talk to you soon!!
YIPPIE!!!!!!! You have no idea how ecstatic I am that you guys are performing this weekend! And it was meant to be because it fits perfectly into my schedule! I am seriously jumping off the wall! SERIOUSLY cannot wait to see you guys this saturday!!
The pleasure is all mine, I'm sure! Well I know this probably isn't a possibility in the near future, but if you ever find yourself in the Lincoln/Omaha area of Nebraska, you will definitely have a friend to hang out with and a place to crash if you find the need! I absolutely adore your music, and I hope that the sun shines on your day today! smiles, ~ Eric
