Local Music News:Summer Cats Sign To Slumberland
Friday, June 19 2009 at 02:00 AM.
Melbourne’s Summer Cats will release their debut LP through US label Slumberland. Titled Songs for Tuesdays, the album is scheduled to hit the shelves on July 14. It follows a run of 7” singles, a couple 3” CD-Rs and their Scratching Post EP.
To celebrate, the five-piece – who write upbeat pop songs in a “Stereolab-meets-Go-Betweens style” – are heading for the states for a run of west-coast shows. The band will perform two shows in Los Angeles, as well as dates in San Francisco and Sacramento in July.
Featuring former Earthmen lead singer Scott Stevens, Summer Cats made their live debut at Melbourne’s The Tote in 2006. Their new labelmates include Bricolage and The Pains of Being Pure At Heart.
