Anna Coddington released her sophomore album Cat & Bird this year to critical acclaim in her homeland New Zealand, firmly establishing herself as an artist of note. Described by critics as "a balanced set of exceptional indie pop" (Waikato Times) and "breathtaking" (Yahoo Entertainment), Cat & Bird was co-produced by Anna and her guitarist Ned Ngatae. While a lot had changed in her life and songwriting approach since the release of her 2008 debut The Lake, Anna's voice and the melodies she has created for Cat & Bird continue to glide throughout the ether in splendid fashion. Combining a quirky pop style with elements of acoustic balladry, Cat & Bird boasts crunchy guitars and big dynamics, and shines with the talents of Anna's band: guitarist and co-producer Ned Ngatae, drummer Riki Gooch (Eru Dangerspiel, Trinity Roots), bass player Mike Hall (Nightchoir, Pluto) and keyboardist/vocalist extraordinaire LA Mitchell (Dave Dobbyn, The Dukes).
