Band/artist history
Using sassy songwriting and electric guitar, Carrie Catherine (Horachek) has a way of seducing audiences with engaging stories and a dramatic vocal style. Her new album Venus Envy (Nov 2005) delves even further into her version of green-eyed soul where this prairie-born musicians affection for Diana Ross and Al Green becomes most apparent. Both the sounds and the stories are soulful, as Carrie Catherine transforms pedestrian events into poetic songs that audiences relate and respond to.
For Venus Envy, Carrie partnered with John MacArthur Ellis (Jeremy Fisher, The Be Good Tanyas, Barney Bentall) whose production flavors her distinct brand of songwriting that is artful and accessible. Arguably the best Saskatchewan independent release of 2005 (Gerry Krochak, Regina Leader Post), the album highlights Carries expressive vocals, which translate both poignant and peculiar moments with honesty.
Venus Envy comes after Carries first release Out the Car Window (June 2003), which has been featured twice on Joan of Arcadia, as well as the new television series Beautiful People. The album won acclaim from critics and audiences alike: With beautiful vocals and comfortably catchy tunes, theres little doubt this prairie pixie is on a road trip to stardom (Ryan McLaughlin, Canadian Musician). During her impressive touring scheduleincluding performances at Waynefest, Canadian Music Week, Western Canadian Music WeekCarrie Catherine indulges her love for live performance: At once sweet and passionate, charming and electric, she radiates the simple joy of being able to perform (Adam Norris, Sheaf).
Whether she is singing about lovers, leftovers, or life, listeners appreciate her clever, thought-provoking lyrics and soulful songwriting.
