2016-2018 & Rising With The Sun - In Review Despite the wash of hundreds of cities, thousands of stages, millions of miles shows remain in your mind forever. The Roundhouse in London was one of those shows. We were the first Australian band to sell out two consecutive nights at that venue, but that's not the only thing that made it special. There was just something in the air, something about that stage, something about that audience. Hands up if you were there. Make sure you are 'there' when our virtual concert goes to air in December.

About: About: Formed in Melbourne, Australia and adored the world over, The Cat Empire is a musical success story that continues to be written. Throughout their 20 year career, the band's stratospheric trajectory has continued unabated, becoming one of Australia's most successful musical exports, growing an army of ardent fans at home and abroad. Since their teens, the six bound together by a love of music, and bolstered by the career-long guidance of Manager Correne Wilkie, have gone about the business of crafting infectious, genre-embracing anthems and releasing chart-topping, multi-platinum albums to take to the live stage. It was not unusual to find the band performing on main stage bills at iconic international festivals, selling out the world's most famous arenas, mobbed by supporters and media at airports in Spain, and appearing on top rating T.V. shows like Letterman and Leno. In September 2021, The Cat Empire announced that after 20 years, the band's original line-up would play their final shows together, culminating in a massive show and virtual concert from their hometown of Melbourne in December. The next chapter of The Cat Empire begins with founding members Felix Riebl and Ollie McGill stepping forward with “a re-imagined, vibrant, cross-cultural, and joyful collective of musicians and artists“, with new music planned for 2022.
