New album is go!

Super excited to announce that we’re officially in new album territory!

Isaac has been writing for the last 18 months or so, and a collection of songs have started to come together to form the basis of our next album… It’s only been what, 5 years?!

We’re absolutely stoked to have Andy Cooper back on board on percussion duties too – it’s hard to imagine Cats and Crows without him these days.

Beyond that, we’ve got some really special stuff happening too. A choir of friends for example, made up of people from all over the world that Isaac has met over the last few years of (finally) attending Glen Hansard gigs – several of whom have said they’ll sing and record some lyrics that we can then use on some of our songs. We’ve also got our old friend Xander back on violin duties. Xander played violin on our first album Honest Crimes nearly 10 years ago now, so that’s really exciting. As well as all that, we’re in the process of negotiating with a very rare breed of musician – a Welsh Pipes player… all our fingers and toes are crossed. Watch this space!

The album is tentatively called “10am” and features artwork from Isaac’s girlfriend, Hannah. It’s inspired by, but not necessarily about, the loss of an animal that was extremely dear to Isaac, and all those feelings of mourning, grief and retrospection that the loss of any family member brings to the surface. It’s a tribute to a soul that’s now finding it’s way in the universe beyond our world.

Aiming for (but expecting to miss) a March 2026 release. This album is the most important & most honest piece of music we’ve ever made, so we’re waiting for the album to be done with us, rather than us done with it.

See you out there!
