My other band Debutantes still exists. Above you'll see a poster from a show that we did several years ago (Phony Bone's singer is now Panther and The Zoo, and Jane De Jong is now major label hope Ruby Frost), we're kinda one of those bands that has always been pretty casual. It's quite rare that we play a show and actually finish a recording of a song. Whether we've had the wrong lineup, not enough motivation, or for whatever reason, it's kinda this funny thing where we just never broke up. That's probably because it's always been one of the most fun bands to be in, with the most amazing people. Andy and Sean and Shane are some of my most favourite people ever. One of the most recent happenings... uh, which was over a year ago, was that our drummer Sarah left to concentrate on Wildwood Lights, and the result is that Shane Warbrooke of Bemsha Swing has jumped on the kit. I love his drumming.
We most recently recorded this song, and it's the first to feature our new lineup with Shane.... (free download). It might be a bit of you if you like that college rock kinda thing.
It's looking likely that Bear Cat won't really be playing live much over the next several months, which depresses me terribly, though I have lots of Bear Cat new stuff to record and keep me busy with. Josie has to pass university so she can't really play shows, so here's to other projects. Perhaps it's not too late for Debutantes to focus and make our magnum opus.
