They have been interviewed in The Deli Magazine, where they were named Chicago's Artist(s) of the Month.[1] In May 2009, they were finalists for MetroMix's Rock 'n' Vote competition, but first place went to another local band, I Fight Dragons.[2] Other online reviews include The Brooklyn Paper's video review,[3] and Jersey Beat.[4] HistoryMatt Hart and Tom Fort are the founding members of CATHG, and members Mike Roth and Jesse Alexander joined soon after the band's inception in 2003 at Oberlin College in Ohio. The band members graduated from Oberlin in 2006, and headed back to Chicago, where Matt and Tom grew up. The band released their first Carbon neutral album in 2008, Jump the Fence. In January 2012, the band created a Kickstarter campaign to help fund the recording of their newest album, Everybody Wins, which raised $8,000. Fans that donated money to the campaign chose from prize options such as receiving mix CDs, having the band play a show in the fan's hometown, and becoming an 'Honorary Hired Gun' and being named on the album. "Everybody Wins!" was released June 12, 2012.[5] Discography
