Plates Of Cake frontman Jonathan Byerley to release debut solo LP 'Catherine Market'

Plates Of Cake frontman Jonathan Byerley channels the spirit of a true rock & roll outcast, delivering an oddball classic of literate, rambling gems (think Skip Spence and Gene Clark).

Catherine Market, his debut solo LP, is a contemporary twist on sun-scorched country-rock; a golden key to the long-locked bungalows of Laurel Canyon circa 1969.

The Brooklyn-based songwriter recorded Catherine Market in Boulder, Colorado with friends at Rockbox Analog Fidelity, a now-defunct basement studio that was once the center of a revolving cast of local musicians, tape freaks, and analog tinkerers.

The resulting record represents the height of a collaborative partnership between Byerley and producer/arranger William Yale, with whom Byerley first formed Plates Of Cake after relocating to the east coast.

Catherine Market is the missing link between Byerley's solo song-craft and the heavier rock stylings of his band, the bridge from his home state of Colorado to Brooklyn, and a cross-pollination of influences, eras, and coasts.
