Elizabeth & The Catapult have released the music video for single “Taller Children”.

“The song “Taller Children” is an ode to all of the adults who just never quite figure out how to grow up. On a grand scale, that can sometimes be a pretty scary concept, especially when it’s regarding people in power who can’t handle their responsibilities,” says Elizabeth Abby Ziman, Elizabeth & The Catapult’s vivacious singer-songwriter.

“But on a lighter and more personal note, I’m just owning up to the fact that I still can’t manage to cook a decent omelet- and I’m not afraid to laugh about it”.

People are quickly falling in love with Elizabeth & The Catapult’s debut LP ‘Taller Children’. Are you?

What people are saying:

“The group utilizes elastic rhythms and dark subject matter that gives its songs a slow burn resonance. The sing-a-long swing of ‘Momma’s Boy’ makes it one of the most tuneful kiss-off songs in recent memory. Fans of Feist should be head over heels in no time.” – Spin.com

“’Momma’s Boy’ is a weight title that will prompt savvy listeners to look for more from this budding act, while rewarding outlets that indulge Ziman by breaking type.” – Billboard

“…these three won’t be flying under the radar for long.” – The Village Voice

Having already built a strong following in their New York home turf, Elizabeth & The Catapult are now embarking on a national tour this summer. Don’t miss your chance to see Elizabeth & The Catapult perform songs from their debut album, ‘Taller Children’.
