"Hold the phone! Double Shot made me sit up from the first riff and hasn't let up yet! Kicks you until this really cool funky break here, this is nice and they kick the door in again! This one has taken over as CD favorite with one new song to go. Love Spell, again a cool guitar intro, nice drum piece as the band joins the fray. Heather has range to spare everywhere in this CD, what a voice! The band is tight and they can take some really nice turns from the main path of each song with surprising breaks. The band has a lot of talent coming through and I completely expect them to blow me away when I see them. Heather has a wickedly strong and tantalizing voice. She can go soft and sexy to power and fury in an instant. The production is there, the CD look is awesome..."

"“Lupi and Kyle can really bring it…rythym section is solid and dynamic…crunchy background” “This self-titled EP is really quite well done, but I expect and anticipate more from them and frankly am quite looking forward to hearing it.” “I predict…exciting possibilities lie ahead of them.” "

Bio
Can anything good come out of Chittenango, New York?
Well… there was that author who wrote a tale, about a magical land called OZ, that featured a wizard, a couple of witches, a bunch of munchkins and a girl named, Dorothy.
And now… there’s a rock-n-roll band called, CATASTROPHE ME that has their own story to tell …
After playing together for two years, Collin Brushell, Heather Brushell and David Lupi, were joined by Andy Miller and Kyle Agley to create the unique sound that is Catastrophe Me. With musical influences ranging from funk rock to hard rock, from Amy Lee to the thumping sounds of Primus, Catastrophe Me, combines honest, hard-hitting lyrics with melodic, intricate rhythms and rockin’ guitars to form their own “catastrophic” sound.
In the fall of 2009 Catastrophe Me recorded their first 6 song demo of original material, and have, “put the show on the road.”
All good stories take twists and turns, and theirs is no different. The release of their DEMO "Catastrophe Me," lead them to opening for some national shows like, Tantric, Halestorm, and Sick Puppies. Then, in the fall of 2010, Catastrophe Me was awarded the prestigious 2010 Brian Bourke SAMMY Award for "Best New Artist."
The beginning of 2011 found the band at the infamous Moletrax Recording Studio recording their first, full-length studio album entitled, "Hello Bella."
And now, as they say, the rest of the story …
