Live Review: PREMIERE: Catlips live at Camp Doogs 2015

CATLIPS was one of the WA natives that got to play at Camp Doogs and her performance was certainly weird in the best of ways.

Camp Doogs inspires a lot of weird, eclectic performances over the three days it runs. CATLIPS was one of the WA natives that got to play at Camp Doogs and her performance was certainly weird in the best of ways.

For those not in the know, Camp Doogs is a three day Arts and Music festival in regional Western Australia. The lineup is kept secret along with the location, but it features some of WA's most loved new acts alongside national and international legends. In 2015 they recorded a selection of their favourite performances to share with the outside world.

Catlips blends the audio and visual by utilising a certain aesthetic, as seen in the first look of a live video from the festival! Pink everywhere, with topless dancers and foam by her side; her show really stood out, in comparison to the barren, dry landscape you can see behind and around the stage itself.

Catlips' incredibly tasteful live set is one of the rhythm house variety, where samples drop in and out in a more free flow sort of way rather than playing a specific song, the set switches between several different prominent sounds and it makes for a performance that's for sure interesting.
