Hello! The Cat the Hat and the Fiddle appear this time with a cover of Beirut's 'The Penalty', from their wonderful album 'The Flying Club Cup' - a heavily ukulele based song that the Fiddle decided to play, most incongruously, on a South American charango (The Latin-American Super Ukulele!)

Sadly, the Hat had to go home for the Easter holidays and couldn't feature... Thus, with the comic tone considerably lowered, this song had to be produced in between bewailing the absence of our dear friend... sob :'(

On a happier note, our good old friend Luke Temple, who shot and edited Cymbal Rush for us, came to collaborate with us once again, to make the most creative and complex we have shot to date - and he even appears in it playing percussion this time, so you can see what he looks like!

So many, many thanks to Luke for sacrificing nights of sleep, all whilst having a cold, writing an essay and preparing for a trip to America. We love you.

- The Cat

All of The Cat, the Hat and the Fiddle's songs are VideoSongs (inspired by Jack Conte and his duo, Pomplamoose, look them up on YouTube), NOT music videos - that means that everything you see, you hear, and everything you hear, you will see! No hidden sounds or sneaky lip-syncing.

  • very gooooooooood!

  • Thanks for sharing this nice VideoSong.

  • lol @ 2:59 the hat on the wall changed.

  • Absolutely AWESOME!!!

    Well done to you for the painstaking production of another masterpiece, and thank you for providing such a musically-creative enjoyable, worthwhile 3mins6secs!

  • Luke truly is a genius. Just wanted to highlight that, while the cover is awesome, I was really REALLY taken with how fun it was just trying to keep track of everything, and it picks up at a lovely pace throughout. Fantastic job, Luke.

    As for you two, really all I can say is that this is your best effort yet. So keep doing better and prove me wrong.
