Enter Cathy Burton: songwriter - performer - scholar - teacher - pupil - and all the rest that you could possibly hope for. A voice that hurts as well as it heals, an attitude as honest as it is determined, an artist standing at the foot of an epic canvas, about to paint in her future.
A music scholar first, Cathy's craft has been developed over years of study. Teaching piano brought its own lessons, as did working alongside a range of artists in a range of capacities. From scoring to supporting, providing backing vocals to co-writing alongside some serious talent, Cathy's breadth of experience has turned her into a singer-songwriter with plenty to say and plenty with of ways of saying it.
Live at the Big Day OutCathy's support duties have taken her all over Europe and into venues such as Brixton Academy, Shepherds Bush Empire and Manchester Apollo. Her co-writes have seen her seated next to the likes of Ricky Ross (Deacon Blue) and Paul Statham (writer of Dido's hit "Here With Me").
Such experience lead her to the recording and release of her debut album, "Burn Out" (2002). As titles go, it turned out be less than prophetic: sales proved that Cathy was rapidly building a core base of dedicated, intelligent fans, who lie a little less froth on their latte.
What followed were further tours, supports and growth, all the time with Cathy focussed on the next project, and now "Speed Your Love" is ready, willing and able. This time the album includes some collaborations with other writers such as Ricky Ross, (Deacon Blue), Mark Kerr (Simple Minds) and Kevin Hunter, (Simple Minds/Sheryl Crow). Gig highlights of the year have included, Glastonbury Festival, La Fete de l'Espoir (Geneva), supporting Ricky Ross, Paul Carrack, Kris Kristofferson (Carling Apollo Hammersmith) and appearing at the Purcell Rooms, as part of a Kashmir Klub special event. Most of her travels at the moment remain around the UK playing crowds, anything from 50 to 25,000.
And the record; It showcases a harder edged set of melodies and accompaniments, but travels in a land where melody still is the stardust, harmony the sunrise on a view crying out for fresh life.
As for Speed Your Love's inspiration, it comes from a range of sources: "it was in the oven for a year, so there's a range of themes: falling in love, dealing with loss, seeing prodigals come home, dealing with the frustration of a compassion that is full on one day, but invisible the next."
So Cathy's story arrives at her second album that stalks wider success with a well placed sense of determination. A range of talents suspended in perfect harmony. A future canvas whose watermark is coming through day by day.

I see a picture
An image
Of such fullness
Painted in your heart
And I
I see a future
You could only feel it within your soul
No matter how hard
It seems to be
You can put your trust in me
I'll be right by your side
I
I see the freedom
A safety net
Where you can find your inner voice
And I
I see a flame inside
So bright
And it will light your way back home
No matter how hard
It seems to be
You can put your trust in me
I'll be right by your side
And I'll show you
Hearts connected again
In the midst of the pouring rain
Hearts connected
Just when you least expect it
"Hearts Connected" by Cathy Burton is a song about the power of love and how it can overcome any obstacles. The opening lyrics imply that the singer has a deep understanding of the person they are communicating with, seeing an image painted within their heart and a bright future within their soul. The singer describes themselves as a reassuring presence, someone who can be trusted and will be by their side through thick and thin.
The second verse builds upon this theme, describing the freedom and safety net that comes from having someone who believes in you unconditionally. The image of a flame inside represents the passion and drive needed to succeed, something that can guide the person back home no matter how difficult the path becomes. The chorus repeats the titular phrase, "hearts connected," indicating that the bond between the singer and the person they are addressing is unbreakable. No matter what happens or how unexpected the connection may seem, their love will persist through any adversity.
Overall, "Hearts Connected" serves as a reminder of the importance of human connection, and how love and support can help us overcome even the most daunting challenges. The song's emphasis on the power of trust and constant presence can serve as a comforting message for those who are struggling, reminding them that they are not alone in their journey.
