About Chatmusic
Chatmusic
is a website, record label and band network dedicated to the promotion
of bold and innovative acoustic and mulitcultural music featuring the
violin. Chatmusic is run by Kate Hands and
Joe Townsend, both violinists and fiddle players
who are passionate about performing, teaching and promoting violin music.
The letters CHAT stand for Cat, Horse And Tree, the essential components of the violin. Violins are made from the wood of a tree, and bow hair comes from the tail of a horse. In the beginning violin strings were made from sheep's intestine, which was given the nickname "catgut".
The Chatmusic label has produced three albums in recent years, by Mukka and the Joe Townsend Band, which have received high acclaim from John Peel, fRoots magazine and Glastonbury festival goers alike. Click here
