2009 Release of debut EP 'Tiny Spark' and signing to Mushroom
Music Publishing
2009 has been a busy year for delicate
Sydney Singer/Songwriter Caitlin Harnett. Caitlin released her debut EP
‘Tiny Spark’ which was recorded with Matt Fell at Love Hz Studio. The
independently released EP features five beautifully crafted original
songs and a lilting version of the Johnny Cash and June Carter classic
Jackson.
"Tiny
Spark is a beautiful testament to just how lovely an acoustic guitar and
melodic vocals can be" Brag Magazine
Caitlin is just 19 years old, but the maturity and credibility of her
songwriting has quickly captured the attention of audiences and music
industry insiders. Caitlin won the Young Songwriter Award at the Apollo
Bay Music and early this year was selected to perform at the Port Fairy
Folk Festival. Caitlin regularly performs around the Sydney Live music
scene.
The EP has
achieved great success with all 5 original songs being used in prime
time Australian Commercial television programs. Another song will soon
feature in an upcoming Australian film. Earlier this year Caitlin was
shortlisted for the prestigious APRA Professional Development Awards.
2009 has seen her tour with Angie Hart, Karl Broadie, The Wildes, Paul
Greene and The Huckleberry Swedes.
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. Hard to categorise, her songs have a touch of pop,
the lilt of folk, the honesty of country, and suggests early-life
exposure to somebody's really good record collection.
"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)
"Every now
and then you run across an artist who you feel, rather than hear. I
closed my eyes, and her music took me away. Yes, I heard it, but I also
felt it which is a rare thing. Tim Daley XYZ Networks
