Cate Le Bon Introduces New Music, Hits SXSW

You may recognize Cate Le Bon's name from her featured guest vocals on Neon Neon's "I Lust You." Her name may ring a bell because of her UK label deal on Super Furry Animals front man Gruff Rhys', Irony Bored Records. But it is Cate Le Bon's dark and intriguing lyrics paired with her folk-meets-psych-rock music that have perked ears across the globe.

Her debut album, "Me Oh My," will see its US physical debut May 4 via The Control Group (El Perro Del Mar, Wildbirds & Peacedrums).

Having toured as support for Super Furry Animals in the UK and spending a year touring the world as part of Neon Neon's band, Cate Le Bon is no stranger to the road. This March at SXSW, however, marks Cate Le Bon's debut in playing her own music to an American audience.
