About Me

I'm a poor-ass student at the University of Hertfordshire in Hatfield. I'm studying for a BSc in Music, Commercial Composition and technology and I finish in May but don't graduate till November (????) I love music of any kind and I sing and write songs as well as play the Clarinet and Piano, a little bit of Flute and a very little bit of Acoustic guitar.I'm fun and lively, I'm hugely loyal and I love my friends dearly but I'm really crap at keepng in contact! I have two jobs - debt collecting or Ford Credit and Lifeguarding/Rec assistant-ing at the Sports Village at Uni. I like my work but it's mainly down to the interesting, tolerant and lovely people I work with I am still at either of these jobs! I live with my gorgeously lovely boyfriend Matt in (S)Hatfield but we hope to move when we can afford to!Next year I hope to work for a year and save LOTS of money so I can go and do a post-grad or master's degree in Musical Theatre in a prestigious music/drama school in London. Before this I need to do a lot of the aforementioned saving (difficult for me, I'm not exactly the thriftiest of people! In fact I find money management terribly difficult, it burns some major holes in my pocket!) and gain lots of experience, a-la We Will Rock You and Now Let's Rock! Hope to be in a production of High School Musical fairly soon and WWRY again of course with Meme, any other auditions I can get in the meantime will be a bonus! I need to learn to dance BAAAAAAAAAADLY!!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 9/28/2006
Band Website: "catrinjones.net

Band Members: Just me but I have collaborated with Matt Keil ( www.mattkeil.com ) and am a HUGE fan of Le Monnier ( www.le-monnier.com )!

Influences: Love everything apart from Rap and heavy Trance-y type stuff and Screamo which gives me a headache.Acoustic pop/indie type stuff is my fave, I like people like Amy Winehouse, KT Tunstall and Cerys Matthews and bands like Razorlight, Kaiser Chiefs, Manics, Feeder, Catatonia, Stereophonics etc.I have quite an ecclectic taste and I think the is because I grew up on the likes of Kate Bush, Queen, Supertramp, Mike Oldfield (of Tubular Bells fame) and the Planets by Holst, as well as a lot of cheesy Welsh folk-pop that my Dad had links to.
Sounds Like: Come see me sing and you'll find out!

Record Label: Unsigned
