Caryatid started life in 2005. The brainchild of Paddy Navin it is a one man song writing and recording project with the aim of publishing songs on the internet for free.

At its inception, Caryatid was little more than Paddy’s dream. A self taught guitarist, with a repertoire of only 4 chords, it was passion that created those first songs.

By 2006 the Caryatid studio was fully operational and the first published music was released in the form of the “Antipode” EP. Since then two albums have followed; 2007’s “Aloof No More and All Grown Up” and 2009’s “Teaching Fish To Swim”.
