Not your average folktronic artist, Caitlin has single-handedly taken this genre and pulled it to the left with her abstract composition, electro-acoustic stylings and film nostalgia.

Caitlin Park’s fascination with the elegancy of language was nourished by a part-time post at a cult video store around the corner from her family home. This culminated in a piece of music based on the murder plot scene in Hitchcock’s Dial M For Murder – her reverse soundtrack. Caitlin has bunkered down after releasing her highly acclaimed debut EP Warriors With Wild Hearts and, after several months spent catching sound with her field micrphone, she is ready to release her full length record... MILK ANNUAL.


A sprawling, intricate and heart-warming foray into the soundscapes of old films, audio books, spoken word, and minimalistic musical arrangement, MILK ANNUAL is as much a exploration in found sound and sonic design as it is an exhibition of modern folksong construction. You will hear kids screaming, the clink of roped boats, struck matches and irregular heartbeats mixed with layered vocal sampling and overlaid by a singer with a voice that wraps you up in a warm blanket. Inspired by Steve Reich, the Penguin Cafe Orchestra, the sonic innovation of CocoRosie and The Sleeping State, Caitlin’s debut effort is an entanglement of excellent ideas.

She will be launching the film clip for forthcoming single: BABY TEETH with a string of shows in August.

Followed by the MILK ANNUAL ALBUM TOUR in September
MILK ANNUAL will be available on Broken Stone Records, Green/MGM and iTunes this August.
