“..that hook is SO catchy, we’ll be singing it for sure. Katherine is definitely reeling us in with those ear worms..”
When Katherine Aly launched her solo project earlier this year, she already had a strong track record of musical and artistic collaborations under her belt. So perhaps it should come as no surprise that within two weeks of her first gig was invited to support Goodbye Mr McKenzie and then ONR, as well as getting booked for Kelburn Party.Her debut single was released in May via Edinburgh label Infinite Hive and is followed on 17 August by the excellent Sunny Days. Not only do we have an exclusive preview of the video (directed by Stuart Alexander) but also the first picture from her shoot for photographer Jannica Honey’s internationally-acclaimed Blackbird series.

Katherine Aly plays a Fringe show at Cold Town House on Saturday.
