Drawing on the ups and downs of life and love, Shaw brings honesty and emotion to every track on The Ransom EP. “Catey’s new music seems to follow the pattern of breaking hearts and taking names, complete with an ’80s beat.” (Inked Magazine) In advance of its June 10^th release, The Ransom EP has already built a buzz in the blogosphere. PopCrush called her end-of-summer single, “Walks All Over You” “upbeat, audacious, and a complete earworm.” Shaw has dropped visuals for the first four singles from the project, “Walks All Over You,” (85k views) “Tell Everyone” (21k views), the title track, “The Ransom” (57k views) and her latest single “Lovesick Jerk.” Fans can also stream “Tell Everyone” on OUT Magazine and “Walks All Over You” on PopCrush.
