ABOUT LE' CHAT MEOW:
Musically speaking, do you enjoy something a little off the beaten path once and awhile? Do you mainstream with the best of them but still enjoy a good acoustical set when you hear one?
This trio, fronted by Laura Joseph (vocals/acoustic guitar), plays what I’ll call a cool, original set of eclectic songs. Ms. Joseph writes all the material, and is accompanied perfectly by Greg Urbaitis on the upright bass (along with the mandolin and melodica), and Suzie Wright on the djembe drum (and various other percussive instruments, or as she calls them, toys). The result varies from a rich, smooth, and never boring smorgasbord of sound. However, since variety is the spice of life (and I think the spice of music too), the mood sometimes shifts to a jarring, stark, and powerful mode, all courtesy of Joseph’s emotive soprano vocals combined with her crisp, staccato strumming, which often bursts into the forefront. The transitions from delicate and smooth to powerful and sometimes even haunting, all without the aid of high-powered amplification, was quite refreshing. As for the songs themselves, they’re generally about relationships (good and bad) and life reflections, and as such have that classic folksy feel of poetry set to music. You can hear some streams of their music on mysapce.com/lechatmeow. You will also find a long list of the band’s diverse musical influences. If that doesn’t pique your interest I don’t know what would. That diversity certainly has a powerful, positive effect on the music. The band plays predominantly in and around Nashville, so check their myspace before heading down to Music City and make a night of it. But if you never get to Nashville, don’t despair.
