Biography

Cat's Claw "happened" together in January 1993 when a string of old acquaintances had each received an invitation to the same wedding party. When this fact was realised, the idea was mooted to hold a few practices and stage a short ceilidh by way of a wedding present...

The dance was a huge success, the scratch band (that's where the name comes from) were told that their sound worked a treat—and so, a new band was born!

Guy (melodeon) is responsible for the band's characteristic rhythmic style as Selyf (fiddle) and Imogen (flute) take-off on flights of fancy in and around the tune, whilst Roger (drums) and Dave (bass) provide the cross-rhythms working with Bob (guitar) in pinning the whole thing down with a strong, rock-steady guitar part.
