MICK NADIN'S ON THE LOOKOUT FOR 'CATHCART JOHNNY'

About 60 ks up the back road from Pambula to the high country ski fields is a little town called Cathcart.

Perhaps Cathcart's most talked about character is a fella most folks call Cathcart Johnny.

Little is actually known about him. He's very reclusive. 'Spite of that, Cathcart Johnny is a local legend.

People spot him walking along Mt. Darragh Road. Rumour has it he lives in a hollow log up near the top of Big Jack Mountain and walks to the Cathcart store to collect his goodies from time to time. 

Story goes the Cathcart community gave him a caravan but he prefers his log.

His long black coat, black trousers and boots never seem to change, despite the extremes of weather up the top of the range.

That's about all we know.

PBGB loves producing songs about local people and places. We were stoked when Mick told us he had written a song about Cathcart Johnny. 

We kicked it about, performed it at the Merimbula Classic, then took it back to The Shed and turned on the recorder.
