Band of the Day: Catfish Haven

Secretly Canadian has done an amazing job adding new bands to it's roster: I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness and Catfish Haven. The latter is a solid three-piece who've toured with groups like My Morning Jacket & Kings of Leon. Guitar, bass, and drums are the band's simple palate. The band calls Chicago home but takes their name from the Missouri trailer park where guitarist and vocalist George Hunter was raised.



In addition to playing CMJ weeks back, the band has a handful of dates in the next few weeks.


10/05/05 - Minneapolis, MN @ Triple Rock

10/06/05 - Osh Kosh, WI @ University of Wisconsin w/ Decibully

10/08/05 - New York, NY @ Mercury Lounge

10/09/05 - New Haven, CT @ BAR Nightclub

10/28/05 - Chicago, IL @ Subterranean

10/29/05 - Detroit, MI @ Magic Stick

10/30/05 - Cleveland, OH @ Grog Shop




The band's first record will be a 7-track EP called Please Come Back released in January 2006. They are also working on a full-length album to be released later next spring.
