Catbug is the project of singer-songwriter Paulien Rondou, who grew up in Duisburg, a Belgian village near Tervuren. After completing her studies in 'Kleinkunst' (artistic cabaret) at the Antwerp Conservatory, Paulien moved to her mother and stepfather's small farm in Westmalle. Although she left without a specific goal, it didn't take long before the first wonderful songs were born there.
For her new album Musjemeesje, Paulien teamed up with producer Aiko Devriendt, who also took care of the mixing. The album was recorded in pianist Guy Van Nuyten's studio and once again, the conscious choice was made to keep it sober. Less is more. This resulted in a unique, dreamy Dutch-language indie-folk record reminiscent of Jessica Pratt and Joni Mitchell.
