The Behal Himself

Jamie Catchpole

 I am very happy to introduce you to a young man that I know well and who has written and recorded some beautiful music.
This is my son, Jamie.

This collection of songs was put together by Jamie around 2013-14 and was the inspiration for me figuring out how to do the same. You will probably find, as I do that his music is diverse, clever, intricate and very well executed. I try to keep up.

Jamie resides in Norwood, Colorado near Telluride where he relishes the music scene and volunteered as a DJ at KOTO Radio as Larry's Neighbor (because a guy named Larry lived next door).  The black girl is Whitley.

This collection of songs was written at a time when he was pretty bummed out about relationships so the songs tend to reflect that mood. I am happy to say that he is no longer in that space. So, It seemed to  be appropriate at the time to call this collection: "Off the Chest"


These songs are all uploaded to the various platforms . Go hunting. In the meantime, one of my favorites is also  here with a video.

Steve Behal

Steve Behal is: an Artist (BECA International) behalcatchpole.com, photographer, actor, teacher and occasional songwriter. He is married to Jeannie Catchpole - my “used to be.” As an Artist and trained actor, he is very free-form and loose. This contrasts massively with my engineered style. There are songs of Steve’s sprinkled across my albums and they are hard to miss:

You and Me on 12 infinities
Suede Boots, Wide Awake Most of the Night and Wrong Woman on Polarity
There is a Song on What’s the Point?
