Cat and Mouse is the first single from James’ third solo album. The single features two tunes, The Trapper and The Midnight Mouse. The Midnight Mouse refers to an incident of a mouse in the house in the early hours!
\nF\u00ecbhig was written and largely recorded from home over a two year period like no other. Named after a small village on the West side of the Isle of Lewis near where James lives. The tunes on the album are inspired by place, people and island life.<\/p>\n
