Catherine Feeny is embarking on an 18-date tour–her first since relocating to Portland from her former base in Norwich, Norfolk, UK—and has just announced the availability of an exclusive pre-release version of her upcoming album, “People In The Hole”, via her site, www.catherinefeeny.com. Aside from being able to purchase the album in advance directly from Feeny’s site, fans can hear a sneak peak of five streaming songs from the full-length.

Although she is American-born (she grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia in a house where George Washington once slept), Feeny began garnering popular and critical acclaim in the UK early in her career with the 2003 release of her eponymous full-length debut. In 2006, as Feeny split her time between the UK and Los Angeles and was signed to EMI, her stateside following continued to grow. There, in 2006, LA-based tastemaker Nic Harcourt played her on Morning Becomes Eclectic, his KCRW radio show, and her song “Mr. Blue” off that year’s “Hurricane Glass” LP was featured in the film “Running With Scissors”. That same track reached the A-list at Britain’s most listened-to radio station, BBC Radio 2, and Feeny toured the British Isles extensively both headlining and in support of artists such as Martha Wainwright, Kelly Jones (The Stereophonics), Suzanne Vega and The Indigo Girls.
