Hat Fitz and Cara are hands down one of the best live duos you’ll see. The husband-and-wife team have clocked up 10 years of touring, festivals, and albums, and have just released their much-anticipated 5th studio album Hand It Over, featuring lead track Hold On. Read the interview here.
Thanks to Elmore Magazine for a cracking review of ‘Hand It Over’. Read it in full here. They also enjoyed our show in New Orleans Folk Alliance, reviewing our show here:
“Old favorites Hat Fitz and Cara were deservedly front and center in a big room, to a packed house. With the richest voice since Barry White, Aussie Hat Fitz also wields a mean resonator, his hands a blur at times. An Aussie by choice and marriage, Cara’s soulful wail could be straight out of Memphis or Detroit rather than her native Dublin. During this set, Cara shifted from drums to washboard-with-cowbells to pennywhistle, and danced joyfully through the audience. Always entertaining, Hat Fitz and Cara bring humor and love to everything they do and succeed in sharing both with their audiences.”
We are delighted to see our song ‘City Lights’ being picked up by digital radio stations across UK and Europe, with the song being play listed on the show ‘Digital Blues’. Digital Blues airs 15 times per week on stations based in UK, France & USA but is available worldwide.

“Fitzy decided that it would be really funny to wind me up before a show because he felt that when I was angry I played with more force. He did it a few times, but then he decided it wasn’t worth it.” More interview with Cara at Scenestr here.
