Music

I write and release music under my name Catherine Gunther. My website for my music is www.catherinegunther.com

I love to experiment with sound, from Americana to Pop, I love to let the song choose the style that suits it best.

In the last few years, in part due to the pandemic lockdowns, I’ve been experimenting a lot with my songwriting and have shifted away from traditional instruments of my earlier releases to explore electro-pop. I’m currently working on a pop album which I’m hoping to release in early 2023.

My last release A Dangerous Game (2021) is a dark and enchanting collection of songs charting different forms of love and destruction; the damage of a toxic lover, the hurt of an unexpected ending, the loss of oneself, the betrayal of a confidant, and the strength that can be found to rise above it all. It is an Alt-Folk/Americana record, produced by Jared Adlam. All three singles, Buried Alive, Friends and Dangerous were well received, with Friends reaching #5 on the AMRAP Metro Charts.

A Dangerous Game (2021) is my third EP, following Livin’ On the Land (2015) and Bittersweet Memories (2016). All three records have recieved nationwide airplay on community radio. I’ve also performed a various music festivals including Tamworth Country Music Festival, Urban Country Music Festival and Bleach* Festival as part of the Gold Coast’s Commonwealth Games Cultural Program.

This was how Triple J’s Nkechi Anele (Roots N’ All) described my single Buried Alive (2018):

‘If this song was the weather it would be a thick dense fog – there is something hauntingly captivating and utterly frightening about this track. I’m going to sleep with my nightlight on for the rest of the year now.’ 

I created and designed all the cover artwork and marketing material for the release campaign of these records.

Over the last few weeks I’ve been going through Over the last few weeks I’ve been going through some heavy duty editing of my novel which has been so rewarding seeing it come together better than ever. But being sick this week I took a break and drew out the world map and Academy map from my book which was a lot of fun. Looking forward to finishing these edits in the next month so I can start sharing with beta readers!! ✨#editing #mapmaking #fantasymap #fantasynovel #fantasybook #novel #writer #currentlywriting #betareaders #novelwriting #manuscript #manuscriptedits

In the spirit of reconciliation I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. I pay my respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. The land on which I work and live belongs to the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation.
