little hurricane is a whirlwind of sound that's gaining momentum in the San Diego music scene. Formed in early 2010, little hurricane began when frontman Anthony "Tone" Catalano (Guitar & Vocals), and Celeste "C.C." Spina (Drums & Vocals) met via Craigslist, where they found a common interest in unique and vintage equipment, and a love of grimy, down and dirty blues. They have been creating dirty blues together since. little hurricane's bluesy soul stems from Santa Cruz, where Tone was educated by his musical surroundings, and Chicago, where C.C. first created her back breaking beats.

Little Hurricane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Start a fire in my heart
That’s what I’m trying to do
Start a fire in my heart
That’s what I’m trying to do baby
I gone done give you seven children, know you say that you want more. Oh how’d you get on without me, when I was shipped off to war.. You wanna live in a big house, but we only need one room. You’re on the phone with your mother, but you’re talking all day long.
You can bake me some shortbread, you can bake it call night long. You can call me in for supper, you can call me all you want. You can cause me so much trouble, I don’t mind. You can leave me on the double, I’ll follow behind.
