Down Like Silver

Caitlin — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 16:41:29 +0000

I’ve been writing songs with Peter Bradley Adams and we just finished the first EP from our band, Down Like Silver. All the songs are co-writes and co-sings. I’m so excited to share this music with you!

For the time being, you can only hear or download it at BandCamp. Or if you’d like to get your hands on a physical copy, they are only available at my or Peter’s shows.

Trio on Tour

Caitlin — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 21:43:32 +0000

The band and I are heading to Vermont and Massachusetts this week to continue our fall tour. We kicked it off at Rockwood Music Hall and are heading to West Rutland’s Town Hall Theater on Nov 4th for our debut in VT! I’m especially looking forward to our shows at the beautiful Town Hall Theater in West Rutland, VT (minutes from my hometown!) and at Club Passim in Cambridge. Also excited about a very acoustic evening with Darlingside and the trio in Montague, MA… AND I’ll be bringing a new EP with me that you can only get at my shows…

Get your tickets soon! Town Hall has discounted tickets for $8, Club Passim’s tables will sell out, and Montague is a wee room, call for tickets.

I really hope you make it out to see this band – I’ve been having a blast playing with them and am so psyched to show you what we’ve been up to! If you want a sneak peek…

Want to make an album with me?

Caitlin — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 18:06:55 +0000

I’m making a new record! Join me and get sweet rewards…

I have a shiny batch of songs I’ve been working on and road-testing over the past year and I think they’re the best I’ve ever written. AND some wildly talented musicians (Hans Holzen, Kyle Kegerreis, Darlingside) want to join me on this album!

I’m so excited to make a record that will do these songs justice, but my bank account is not. I need a little help from my fans.

Head over to my Kickstarter page to learn more. You can choose from sweet rewards like an advanced copy of the album, T shirts, homemade maple syrup – even a house concert! All proceeds go directly toward producing the album – your pledge makes this album possible. However, Kickstarter is an all or nothing platform. If we don’t hit the album funding goal by the deadline, no credit cards will be charged and I will not receive any funds.

Whatever contribution you can make, be it a few dollars or just spreading the word about this project would be a huge help. I can’t wait to share this music with you!

Caitlin — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 23:34:10 +0000

I’m over the moon to be opening for The Avett Brothers this fall! We’ll be playing September 25th at Meadowbrook Pavillion in Gilford, NH. You can buy tickets here or call 603.293.4700 – if you use the code “CCAB” it’ll help me out by letting the venue know that I brought in a few fans myself, and you could win a meet and greet with the Brothers.

holy cow this is gonna be great!

Caitlin — Sat, 19 Mar 2011 16:16:20 +0000

My music’s up on Pandora radio! I just created a Caitlin Canty station and I’m thrilled that Feist, Norah Jones, Sarah Harmer and the Shins just played. Good company!

Farm Fresh

Caitlin — Wed, 29 Dec 2010 23:59:50 +0000

If you’re near a radio in Vermont, tune into 102.9 Farm Fresh. The DJs at this homegrown station have excellent taste in music: they keep Led Zeppelin, Mumford and Sons, Bonnie Raitt and (ahem) Caitlin Canty in heavy rotation. And they kindly booked a show for me next month – I’ll be playing in Shelburne, VT on January 28th at Shelburne Steakhouse and Saloon. I’ll have some new originals and covers for three whole hours while you dine on meaty meat and farm fresh salads.

Stereo Subversion likes Neon Streets

Caitlin — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 22:47:14 +0000

Some highlights from Stereo Subversion’s review of Neon Streets:

“Neon Streets is raw and beautiful… filled with pain and longing and yet composed of a strength and certainty that is missing from a lot of today’s singer-songwriters.”

“Canty scores points for not sugarcoating her content. Canty has a gift with words, painting stark images and bringing sounds to life.”
