Don't miss this show. You don't know when you will get this chance again. Take all your friends. They are the best live band and very undiscovered in the USA. I am a Cat Empire fan. I felt like the luckiest person alive when I got to enjoy the show at the Culture Club in Ft. Lauderdale. All the way from Australia, here, ...bringing their energy, fun party vibe, happiness, and full sound. I walked out trying to figure out how I could catch one more show.
This band, belongs on stage. They tell stories with their songs, like Jimmy Buffett, they are a performance band, like Queen, the stage can be big or small, they don't need any fancy pyrotechnics, Felix and his crazy talented band are going to suck you in and transport you, to a place of joy.
There were a lot of people in the audience that had been waiting our whole lives for this night. If you are a Cat Empire fan, and had any concern about the new Cat Empire troupe or how they may have down sized to travel to the United States, to be on a smaller stage, taking down, and setting up, new city every night...do not worry. The songs were bigger then the album recordings. You will love it!
If you want to be uplifted, free, and unbelievably happy, even if you have never heard of THE CAT EMPIRE, go to this concert. Appropriate and enjoyed by all ages. College party atmosphere, Yes! Sophisticated musical interludes, yes! And percussion, oh my! The gentleman next to me was not familiar with The Cat Empire, as we were leaving he was telling the folks he came, "best rock band ever". YES they are. Here and there, I think everyone finds something a little familiar in the Cat Empire music, a chord, or a few measures, but then it will segue way into something exclusive, to that next bridge, that next connection, and there is nothing like it. Nothing like you have ever experienced before. It is transcending. Peace, love, & The Cat Empire.
