Garfield is a German project of Metronome records, featuring a solo vocalist from London called
Rachel Wallace (1,65m, born in 1971, born and raised in Hoxton, Shoreditch). Rachel had already scored some solo hits with
I Feel This Way in 1991 and later
Tell Me Why in 1994, which went #1 in the british dance charts in 1994. Rachel possesses a university diploma in marketing and management and worked until May 1995 in the British Ministry Of Agriculture. "It was not particularly difficult to persuade me to cooperate with the project. And Garfield brought me then also still unexpected luck" Rachel explains.
In the videoclip of
Cool Cat, the single which started it all, one could see the famous cartoon ginger cat originally created by Jim Davis (who originally had the idea of creating a dance hit with his character back in 1991).
Cool Cat, written by the Munchen team G & M Cope, was so successful that a remixes CD was released in June.
