Two Faced Twin 2:51<br /> <br /> Release Notes:<br /> <br /> FatCat discovered our newest signing Gregory and the Hawk<br /> entirely by accident, whilst out one night at a bar in<br /> Brooklyn. An unknown band came on stage and Meredith Godreau<br /> began to sing, instantly stunning everyone in the room. A<br /> month later, she was in the studio beginning work on her<br /> FatCat debut.<br /> <br /> A native New Yorker with a captivating voice and a clear gift<br /> for songwriting, Meredith began playing both piano and violin<br /> from an early age, switching to guitar through high school and<br /> college. She began playing solo shows in small venues around<br /> New England, and made a few CDRs to hand out at shows which<br /> proved incredibly popular. Word spread fast, and the 2006<br /> heyday of the myspace network added rocket fuel to the fire.<br /> When we talked with her about working together after that<br /> first NYC show, we had no idea that some of her self-released<br /> songs had already sold 15,000 copies (and fast increasing);<br /> had not seen the 17 pages of GATH cover versions other people<br /> had posted on youtube; and had never been to any of her (more<br /> common) solo shows. Incredibly, with GATH becoming a huge<br /> d.i.y. success, Meredith is already living off her music /<br /> online presence.<br /> <br /> The name Gregory And The Hawk was conceived in 2003, initially<br /> devised to avoid her being perceived or pigeonholed as a<br /> female singer-songwriter (though, perhaps ironically, when<br /> pressed for a list of influences Meredtih cites Nick Drake,<br /> Liz Phair, PJ Harvey). Meredith remained playing alone under<br /> that name for a few years, until she met Mike McGuire in New<br /> York in 2005. The two played live shows together for several<br /> months before teaming up with bassist Jeff Ratner and drummer<br /> Adam Christgau (both of New York band Paper And Sand). The<br /> four of them recorded the 'Boats And Birds EP',which they<br /> self-released in 2006. Soon after, the four friends moved<br /> apart, and so Meredith began playing live with just Jeff on<br /> upright bass, and herself on acoustic guitar and vocals. This<br /> was how she played most of the shows to support 'In Your<br /> Dreams,' the debut album, again self-released in 2007. The<br /> only players on 'In Your Dreams' were Meredith, Mike McGuire<br /> (who also engineered most of it), and Susan Ambrose.<br /> <br /> The recording of 'Moenie and Kitchi' was somewhat different;<br /> while Mike, Susan and a host of others contributed, many of<br /> the instruments were played by the album's producer, Adam<br /> Pierce (Mice Parade), with most vocals and guitars recorded<br /> simultaneously in just one take.<br /> <br /> The gentle, hook-laden songs of Gregory And The Hawk's mostly<br /> solo / acoustic sets have received much of their considerable<br /> attention through internet streaming and downloads, resulting<br /> in a groundswell of support that belies the fact that up until<br /> now, there has been no label, no manager, or indeed any other<br /> supportive network to help them on their way. GATH have one<br /> major thing on their side - their ability to craft<br /> spellbinding, idiosyncratic pop songs, that sound at once<br /> suggestive, familiar, and yet very much their own. Whilst<br /> ocassionally recalling the likes of Elliot Smith, Liz Phair,<br /> Mazzy Star, Marissa Nadler, or Regina Spektor, &lsquo;Moenie and<br /> Kitchi&rsquo; sees them able to move from the tender, stripped back<br /> dynamics of simple guitar and voice to the more fierce and<br /> firey exhortions - sometimes within the space of a single<br /> song. An incredibly mature and irrestistibly hook-filled<br /> album, it announces the entry of a major new talent.<br />
