St. Catherine’s Child is the acclaimed transatlantic singer-songwriter whose music has touched listeners across the globe. Now the riser has unleashed two must-listen-to covers of "Cosmic Dancer" and "Fly Me To The Moon". Released via TRO Essex Music (Woody Guthrie, David Bowie, T. Rex, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath) and its label arm Shamus Records (Crys Matthews, Flamy Grant), St. Catherine’s double single release fuses indie rock, folk, and dream pop for a one-of-a-kind listen.
"Fly Me To The Moon" begins with driving basslines and steady drums ushering in St. Catherine’s Child's ethereal and enticing vocals. Cathartic and romantic melodies are delivered in the singer's confessional way. Melodic electric guitars and shimmering textures elevate the arrangement, giving new dimension to the 1954 classic written by Bart Howard. The track’s signature cosmic imagery, long associated with love and devotion, is reimagined here with a modern, indie rock atmospheric sensibility.
Originally by T. Rex, "Cosmic Dancer" is a song steeped in vulnerability and surreal beauty. St. Catherine’s Child approaches the track with a delicate reverence, leaning into its introspective nature while subtly modernizing its sonic palette. Her live-tracked version, with collaborators Tom Ashbrook and Dave Ormsby, is intimate and organic with emotive piano chords and warm vocals. The performance captures a sense of wonder that mirrors her personal connection to the song, transforming it into something both nostalgic and newly personal. Her vocal delivery is soft yet assured, sings lyrics all about the eternal and cyclical way of the world.
This double single release is about rediscovery. By approaching these classics with authenticity, St. Catherine’s Child successfully bridges past and present, offering listeners a chance to hear familiar songs through a modern lens. A thoughtful and emotionally resonant covers project that highlights both vocal nuance and artistic identity.
