About
cate guirguis is a singer-songwriter based in Sydney, NSW.
Live looping is the centrepiece of a cate guirguis set. She stacks her own vocals in layers, a habit that comes from years of choir singing, and it gives a one-woman show a fuller, more theatrical sound. Her originals are gentle indie-pop, with lyrics drawn from her own life and the people close to her. At a function she mixes in covers from a long list, among them Rocket Man, Jolene, Flame Trees, Feeling Good, Dreams, Viva La Vida, Ironic, La Vie En Rose, Valerie and Working Class Man. It's a sound people stop to listen to, well suited to a wedding ceremony or an afternoon pub session. Sydney is home, and she'll go up to 50 km for a booking.
