"The self-assured Elizabeth and the Catapult prove
what a sultry-voiced Greenwich Village habitue with a Norah Jones jones should
do: Just let it flow."
-The Boston Globe
"Elizabeth & the Catapult have managed to hurl themselves pretty far through word-of-mouth buzz. The unsigned local trio, led by vocalist Elizabeth Ziman and her Aimee Mann–like drawl, has built a loyal local fanbase via jazzy, buoyant pop songs; they're now making frequent appearances on NPR's Studio 360. Check out jaunty earworm "Momma's Boy," off their self-titled EP—these three won't be flying under the radar for long." -The Village Voice

So I met this girl named Elizabeth while going to see a sketch show at UCB in which my friend Seth was performing. We met in line. I bothered her a bit. She mentioned she was in a band. I then introduced her to everyone I met that entire evening by first telling them about this amazing band, that happened to be hers. I meant to find the band and listen to the music but it slipped my mind until I found that crazy group on "the MySpace" as of recent. And I have to say, I am a big fan.
hi ! thank you for the add, i'm happy to be your new friend : ) your music is really nice ! wish you have a great success in your music. love from period
i loveyouloveyouloveyouguys. and i am sooooo going to try to get into your rockwood show on the 7th. keeping my fingers crossed that mayhaps that whole silly issue of being a minor won't keep me from rockin' out to your sweet soulful grooves of a very funky nature!
Thank you so much for the add. I love, love, love your music! My name is Danielle, I'm currently a Senior at the Academy of Art University, in San Francisco, studying 3d Character Animation. While working endless hours on my computer, doing homework, and studying for my latest exam, I've always longed for listening to music that give me sort of a boost, and keep me energized. LOL! Your music totally does that and more. Whenever I'm feelin' kinda down, I just pop in your CD to listen to, and it totally brightens up my day, and that's such a wonderful thing that you guys are doing. Spreading the joy, through your wonderful music.
Good to see you guys again. I hope that the rest of your time in Austin was productive and fun! Let me know when you're back in town (playing or not playing).
Hi!elizabeth & the catapult**Welcome to my myspace**It is for people who love and enjoy listening to others sing or play beautiful music. Thank you for being here your new friend Reggie
THANKS YOU GUYS! Getting happy birthday wishes from my all time favorite band has made my day! Can't wait to see you guys perform again, hopefully sometime soon!!!!
There was a superb countryish song I heard you guys play live a while back, "Complimentary." I respectfully request that it be the next new song added to this here MySpace page.
