Dear friends,
The album ´The Sounds and the Circles´ has been bubbling away for years waiting to be recorded. Now that we have a baby on the way, it has pushed us to record these songs and share them with you all.
About the Album:
Caitlin is a singer songwriter inspired by Joni Mitchell, Gospel, Latin Jazz and Folk music. Writing music since the age of 12, her songs often have haunting, modal melodies and poetic lyrics which explore love, faith and the natural world. Her debut album, ´The Sounds and the Circles´, will feature percussionist Brendan Bache and multi-instrumentalist Tom Coxhead, plus possible other guests (tbc). New arrangements of these 10 tracks will be on the album:
´Butterfly Song´, ´Blue Lullabye´, ´The Sounds and the Circles´, ´Jealousy´, ´Waiting for Faith´, ´Next Time´, ´Divine Something Else´, ´Walls´, ´Rise and Shine´, and ´Darlin´ Darlin´´.

Message from Caitlin
Thank you so much for supporting this project which has been a true work of love and self discovery for me since I was growing up! I hope that the songs speak to you on a personal level and bring you joy. It will be wonderful to share this original music a bit more widely, so thank you so much for being involved in our crowdfunder.
Love, Caitlin, Tom and Baby Bump xxx
