Catty releases new single 'Pavlov's Dog' + headline tour announced

Welsh pop singer-songwriter CATTY today releases new single 'Pavlov's Dog', arriving alongside of the announcement of her debut headline tour of the UK, culminating in a show at Scala in London on 26th November. The highly anticipated release of 'Pavlov's Dog' comes after going viral on TikTok with the song earlier this year, accruing over 130k likes, 620k views, 3100 comments and 21k saves.

A potent example of CATTY's now trademark brand of theatrical, gothic, carefully orchestrated pop, 'Pavlov's Dog' follows CATTY's two previously released EP's: 2025's 'Bracing For Impact' and her 2024 breakout debut 'Healing Out Of Spite'.

Speaking on the release of 'Pavlov's Dog', CATTY said:

"I dropped psychology and one of my science teachers told me my lipstick was brighter than my future so I don’t know how much I can actually tell you about Pavlov and his dogs. But what I do know is that psychology and songwriting aren’t total worlds apart.

I’m constantly observing and dissecting my interactions with people in order to understand them and write about them, often to my detriment! Sometimes the curtains are just blue.

I’m very black and white and I think fair? So when people do things I don’t understand I really struggle with it. My last relationship completely destroyed my sense of self and my faith in other people, so pavlov’s dog is basically me saying, please rewire my brain. Teach me in the simplest form what love is and what it isn’t. Condition me back to the childlike way of thinking that love is the most beautiful, impossible to tarnish thing in the world and that not everyone is calculated and evil."

Threading sonic references ranging from Kate Bush to Steve Nicks, through stories of queer love and discovery, of desire, of pain and ultimately, resilience, CATTY's music represents not simply a nod to queer life, but a total embodiment - capturing both the euphoria and the bruises of lesbian experience, and spinning them into something truly singular.

CATTY's new single 'Pavlov's Dog' is out now via AWAL. CATTY embarks on her debut headline tour of the UK this autumn, with dates in Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham already sold out.

Proudly Welsh, with her fans affectionately known as ‘the coven,’ CATTY casts her songs like spells - part myth, part confession. Steeped in Welsh folklore and shaped by a lifetime of doomed crushes, she writes with a flair for the dramatic and a refusal to soften her edges. “Being Welsh seeps through my veins – it feels like a punch in the gut when people don’t know I’m Welsh,” she says. “I’m just writing about my life and I happen to be a massive lesbian. If I didn’t say ‘she’ in my songs, I wouldn’t be writing honest music – and what’s the point in that?”

Hailing from the port town of Caernarfon in Wales, and now based in London, CATTY’s star has been on a fast and uncompromising rise over the past 18 months. Across her 2024 breakout debut EP 'Healing Out Of Spite' and soaring 2025 follow up 'Bracing For Impact', she has earned praise from NME (Breakout), Popjustice (Twenty Quid Music Prize nomination), Dork (Digital Cover), CLASH (Next Wave), Official Charts (One To Watch), DIY (Get To Know), and more - while BBC Radio 1’s Jodie Bryant, Mollie King and Maia Beth have been unwavering champions.

In 2024, CATTY sold out her first ever headline show in 15 minutes, supported Dylan and Beth McCarthy on tour, and even opened for Stevie Nicks at BST Hyde Park, closing out the year by headlining a sold out show at London's Lafayette.

In 2025, CATTY performed at both Birmingham Pride and London Pride, stormed Latitude Festival with one of the most captivating sets of the weekend, headlined a sold-out CloseUp Festival, performed at the Women's Rugby World Cup, Reeperbahn Festival in Hamburg and Sŵn Festival in Cardiff, and supported Beth McCarthy on a nationwide tour of the UK.

This year, CATTY continued her run of selling out every London headline she's ever played, with an intimate showcase of new material at London's St Pancras Old Church. CATTY is well on her way to becoming Wales’ next great pop star.
