Emily Kaitz, a Fayetteville Arkansas resident since 1998, cut her musical teeth in the vibrant club scene of Austin, Texas where she lived for 21 years and played "every place that had original acoustic music and didn't pay enough." Emily Kaitz writes songs recorded by Trout Fishing in America, The Therapy Sisters, and The Austin Lounge Lizards. She's recorded six albums of her own songs, which she published under her own label, Pingleblobber Music. Her record label's name ought to give you a clue about the state of her mind, but just in case you haven't gotten the hint from the fact that her music is covered by the likes of Trout Fishing in America and the Austin Lounge Lizards, be alerted to the fact that she is hilariouly twisted.
With a name like Pingleblobber and recording groups like The Therapy Sisters and The Austin Lounge Lizards seeking out her work, it isn't too much of a stretch to guess that Emily's songs are eccentric, intelligent, and strangely humorous. Middle Aged Rock and Rollers Are So Damn Cute took its title from the song by the same name. The lyrics claim that middle aged rock and rollers have bags under their eyes, double chins and a bald spot under their cowboy hats?but damn cute!
Her song "Jay-Walkin" won her the 1983 Austin Music songwriter competition for the best in the Jazz/Soul/Blues category. She's been writing songs in Austin since 1976. She didn't begin performing live until 1980, but has been a regular around town since then.
In 1994, a live album was recorded at La Zona Rosa called Live at the Emily Fest and featuring Emily's songs performed by Christine Albert, The Austin Lounge Lizards, Kris Barnes, The Cow Pattys, Grian Cutean, The Funn Brothers, Gail Lewis, Mike Maddux, Dick Price, The Therapy Sisters, Trout Fishing in America, Caryl P. Weiss, and Emily, too. The Funn Brothers did one of Emily's better known songs, "The Shallow End of the Gene Pool."
Terminally Trendy contains the great number "When I'm Dead, Dress me in Drag." Also on this album, Emily has a duet with Ray Wylie Hubbard on "I Will Stay With."
