Canadian pop prowess Cate shares her brand new single ‘Girlfriend’. Ladened with breezy eighties inspired synth patterns alongside slick guitar riffs, the track is a dreamy outpouring of emotions surrounding a relationship, without the status, thanks to the potential lovers’ commitment issues. The synth driven earworm comes shortly after her first single of the year ‘Get Better’. The new songs depart somewhat from Cate’s roots, forged as she grew up playing country music in Abbotsford, Canada – and take a running jump squarely into the pop arena, glistening with synths, strings, and choruses ready-made for big room singalongs. After taking to the stage as Maisie Peters’ support act on her recent tour and performing to a packed out crowd at this year’s The Great Escape Festival in Brighton, Cate continues to lure in new listeners with her infectious and confessional pop. Inspired by the likes of Dolly Parton and childhood hero Hannah Montana, Cate combines sugary pop-hues against playful yet vulnerable lyricism, drawing resemblance to noughties-era Taylor Swift. And Cate shows no sign of slowing down, with various summer festival performances and a UK headline tour all happening this year. The headline shows kick off this Autumn, making stops in Leeds, Glasgow, Manchester, Dublin, Birmingham, Bristol and London throughout October.
