 | | She was backed by a team of musicians who had played with the likes of Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash and Tammy Wynette and the album was described by critics as "understated and quietly magnificent" and "easily the best album Cerys Matthews has ever made". | | | Cerys will play songs from Cock-a-Hoop as well as previewing a selection of new tracks. | | | Cerys ended up settling in America after flying out to Nashville in 2002 to work on her debut solo album Cock-a-Hoop. |

| | Cerys was back in the charts the following month on a duet with Space called 'The Ballad Of Tom Jones', which reached Number 4. | | | The second single from the album, 'Londinium', described the pressures of inner-city living, which the band said was the result of being on the road. | | | Cerys is now planning a summer solo tour which is scheduled to finish at the Glastonbury Festival on June 29, when Cerys will be six-and-a-half months pregnant. |

| | Cerys Matthews - Cockahoop |
| | To the delight of her former band's fans and afficionados of a distinctive voice box alike, Cerys is back with Cockahoop, her debut solo record recorded in the environs of Nashville. | | | Almost every instrument on the album is acoustic and the production is basic, giving a "live" feel of musicians jamming in a studio and producing little gems every now and again. | | | They jaunt along, rendering all resistance on the part of the listener futile as they cuddle and console and commiserate on a whole plethora of life's weighty troubles. |

| | Matthews will be showcasing her new album on a UK tour in June, and we've got a pair of tickets to see her at Islington's Union Chapel on June 19. | | | One of pop's most charismatic figures, she was for 10 years lead singer of one of the 90s finest bands, Catatonia. | | | Older and maybe wiser, and now going it alone, Matthews releases her debut album next week. |

| | BBC - Rock & Alt Review - Cerys Matthews, Cockahoop |
| | Cerys' voice has the same kind of love it or loathe it quality (like a 10 year old posing in front of the mirror with a hairbrush) but just about manages to stay on the right side of listenable thanks to the quality of the songs and playing. | | | A fantastic album and I'm in total disagreement with the comments that Cerys' voice is not yet strong enough for this genre of music. | | | But elsewhere Matthews'; vocals lack the subtlety and charisma to really make her material come alive, betraying her own inexperience as a singer in a genre where, to be fair, she's chosen to jump in at the deep end. |

| | popboy's Cerys Matthews mini site |
| | In 2003, Cerys released a solo album called Cockahoop, an album with very much an acoustic folk flavour, which is a radical change in sound and direction to her former career. | | | Cerys and Mark, physical partners as well as song writing partners had split, and unfortunately for the band, the central nucleus for the band's reason to survive had dissipated. | | | During the mid 1990's, Catatonia were one of a number of bands from Wales who fought their way to the top of the music tree. |

| | Music Cerys Matthews |
| | Recorded in Nashville with a band of ringers including Bob Dylan producer Bucky Baxter, it’s an acoustic, country-tinged album particularly influenced, Matthews has stated, by The Basement Tapes and the 1969 The Band. | | | But even when singing Catatonia hit singles like "Mulder and Scully," she harbored a love for Welsh hymns and folk songs, managing to include a Welsh-language track or two among Catatonia’s pop confections. | | | Covering quirky faves, lesser-known songs, and a Welsh folk song, Matthews has never sounded more comfortable. |

| | After the Catatonia split, did Cerys consciously consider her position in music and the music world? | | | She says of the finished product, "I didn't go out there to make a Tammy Wynette album, and I don't think I came away with a Tammy Wynette album. | | | Soaking up the sun and playing her guitar on the porch of a log cabin with no running water in the back of beyond ("all the clichés") turned out to be just what she needed. |

| | She was a chardonnay-swigging Britpop star, who famously cracked under the pressure, but now Cerys Matthews is back on track. | | | He's also the producer on Matthews' first solo album Cockahoop, a gloriously stripped-down work that brings together American and British folk music along with a handful of new songs penned by the singer herself. | | | It heralds a dramatic change of direction for Matthews, whose bawdy vocals on hits such as "Mulder and Scully" and "Road Rage", from Catatonia's 1997 album International Velvet, made her the toast of the Britpop scene. |

| | So she wrote 'If You're Looking for Love', a jaunty romp that sounds like it's from a New Orleans musical, setting the tone for the rest of the record. | | | You can't help but wonder what tradition-loving Nashville made of this strangely spoken pop star they'd never heard of, although Cerys provides a glimpse, introducing 'Banjo Moon' as the song the band wouldn't let her record, because she couldn't sing it 'country enough'. | | | Cerys Matthews Union Chapel, London N1 It's always fun to read into song lyrics - what else are they for, after all? |

| | But mostly, it's a record that puts the spotlight on the songs and Cerys' voice, which has taken on a richer patina than we've ever heard from her before. | | | Once the studio and the songs were ready, Baxter set about assembling Nashville musicians with the experience and expertise to give the songs the live feel Cerys wanted. | | | And there's no question that âCockahoopâ is a radically different kind of album to anything we ever heard from Cerys with Catatonia. |

| | Having just bought a house, Matthews is now preparing to re-enter the studio later this month to record her next album. | | | Baxter also pushed the reluctant Matthews -- who had written music for Catatonia -- to write original songs for the record. | | | The album opener, "Chardonnay" -- a pretty, lilting song about the comforts of alcohol -- was a never-recorded tune Roger Cook had written for the Stranglers that Baxter had been humming around his house. |

| | Cerys Matthews: Cockahoop: Pitchfork Review |
| | Either the songs on former Catatonia frontwoman Cerys Matthews' first solo effort, Cockahoop, were recorded in tracklist order, or this album is a triumph of sequencing. | | | But Cockahoop is Matthews' first recorded work since Catatonia's lackluster final album, Paper Scissors Stone, which followed her stint in rehab and preceded the band's dissolution in 2001. | | | Her delivery is whispery and subdued compared to her powerhouse vocals on Catatonia songs like "Road Rage" and "Apple Core." She sounds vulnerable here-- battered a bit by life, but still wide-eyed and hopeful. |

| | When I first played this album, I was expecting to hear a howl of anguish from the tortured soul of Cerys Matthews. | | | The last record by Catatonia sounded tired and forced, and in comparison this sounds fresh, the product of an artist that feels alive, and has come to terms with her problems, “I’m still hurting a little” she admits on Caught in the Middle, but generally you wouldn’t know it. | | | On Chardonnay, the opening track, Cerys sings “when I’m sad, sad and blue, you are my friend, constant and true”. |

| | Cerys Matthews 'Cockahoop' |
| | On first listen, it feels like we need ‘Cockahoop’ more than Cerys appears to. | | | Since Catatonia ’s demise, British pop has seemingly emptied of such characters, let alone female ones. | | | Desperately low-key, this is an airy, carefree set of tunes (key title: ‘Weightless Again’) which spurs ‘Road Rage’ -type bombast for a sound often all but empty of instrumentation. |
