About
Driving with a fine fusion of emotional integrity and enchanting, energizing musicianship, songwriter and artist Cat Janice delivers a fresh thread of artistry to the modern music scene. The indie gem presents a skilful balance of soaring vocals, snappy guitar lines and euphoric synths, for a uniquely immersive take on contemporary pop. Proving both exciting and deeply human, Cat’s versatility knows no limits. From the dance-pop rhythm and bounce of ‘White Shoes’ to the seductive embrace of ‘Luxury’, finely-honed vocals meander with equal parts skill and character. Whether high-octane or breathy and intimate, each song pours emotion and purpose into the creative space. Inspired by the likes of Portugal, The Man and CHVRCHES as much so as the dance queen Dua Lipa, Cat’s love for music transcends the limits of style. Her songs connect with their strong grooves, endearing yet confident lyrical outpourings, and melodies that feel genuinely fresh.
Born and raised in Washington by a vastly musical family, Cat took to violin and piano at an early age. What followed was 18 years of classical training, with valuable time spent as part of orchestral productions, jazz bands and theatre shows. The D.C. music world would soon embrace the young artist as both a pop sensation and a writer/producer to watch that diversity flourish all the more so.
In 2019, Cat took home the WAMMY (Washington Area Music Award) for Best Rock Artist in the DC metropolitan area, and in 2020 her single ‘Pricey’ featured in the hit Netflix show ‘Selling Sunset’. Also noting features on ABC, Cat is an active member of the GRAMMY Recording Academy, and in 2020 began her Environmental Initiative ‘Love Earth A Little More’, as part of the Global Environment Media.
Though Cat’s energy and passion seem unparalleled, her life has not been without difficulties. The creative is fearlessly transparent about her recent battle with cancer, her songs delving into both the struggles and successes of that journey. Her music and social media posts alike have taken the open road, connecting on an unrivaled level thanks to absolute sincerity and soul.
Despite these obstacles, Cat’s lust for life is infectious. Singles like the uplifting ‘Love Warning’, and the unforgettable summer anthem ‘Crypto Kids’, have lit up the airwaves globally, uniting heartfelt lyrics and electrifying production to powerful results. As such, her debut EP promises a breadth of understanding, alongside optimistic, catchy grooves and faultless performances – shining further light on the unstoppable creative force that is the unmistakable Cat Janice.
