Hailing from Australia, ironically they first met in northern Canada at the renowned British Columbian ArtsWells Festival. Realizing they lived 500m away from each other in Melbourne, they made plans to jam back home and This Way North was born.
Currently of no fixed address, Cat and Leisha are enjoying making a home for themselves on the road and the stage. Whether in a local dive bar or at a national festival, This Way North bring more passion and energy than a 10-piece band, drumming up a contagious euphoria.
The past two years have been huge for the duo, since they made the decision to concentrate on playing music full time they have added over 200 live shows across Australia, New Zealand and Canada to their ever-expanding resume. This Way North have brought their magic to audiences from the Yukon to Iqaluit, Nunavut to Haida Gwaii, across Australia's sweeping central desert and down to the geysers of Rotorua New Zealand.
