Band: Bern & the Brights
Get to know member Catherine McGowan.
I want to plug… our new EP, Swing Shift Maisies!
Listen to us if you… enjoy love, coffee, dancing, and some of these bands: Ra Ra Riot, R.E.M., The Frames, Rilo Kiley . . .
Music is my life because: It’s the only thing that feels genuine.
The first song I ever wrote… wasn’t very memorable or good.
My current playlist includes: Ra Ra Riot, Mumford & Sons, Local Natives and Phantogram.
Before every show I… pack a ton of equipment in my truck and drive for hours to get three feet to NYC or other various lovely not so far locations in New Jersey… Occasionally paired with swearing.
The desktop background on my computer is…a picture of my black cat.

Sometimes you’re the windshield and sometimes you’re the bug. What’s today been like so far? Mostly windshield, but maybe without any washer…
Do you eat breakfast? If so, what do you have? I’m strongly opposed to breakfast foods, but that’s just me speaking, Catherine. The rest of the band is thoroughly for pancakes, bacon, ,and making it happen with the Cap’n.
What’s the sexiest thing someone could ever say to you? Umm…it’s cool. No thank-you. I don’t need sexy comments.
If you could take credit for any invention, which would it be and why? A bed. Who doesn’t love a cozy bed?
Here’s what’s next from me: Sleep, mostly. See the previous question…
Web sites I visit daily: planetverge.com, thedelimagazine.com, absolutepunk.net, craigslist.org, 1019rxp.com
THE VEILS is a totally underrated band.
My guilty pleasure is: Marshmallows! And… Old school Mariah Carey.
