The Cat Empire Tickets

When The Cat Empire comes within 200 miles of where you live, GO! These are the most talented group of musicians I've ever seen, playing some of the most fun and entertaining music I've ever heard. Halfway through the first song, when the keyboardist went off on a jazz-inspired solo complete with complex phrases and diminished chords, I knew we were in for something special. They have a deep playlist inspired by ska, latin beats and cuban grooves, and arabian chants... The whole evening was magical.

Great band great show. Upbeat performance and a very unique style. Can't miss this band!

Phenomenal show. The Cat Empire is a truly amazing band to hear live; their studio albums have to way to do justice to their in person performances.

They bring an eclectic blend of world music and the vocals were amazing! They had an ease of blending beats making it a sound of their own.

This was an amazing show. Not only are all the players talented musicians, but also totally entertaining. The energy was high and the songs were clever. They switched from ska sounds to salsa to reggae. I was blown away. They are way better than they sound on CD.

This show was so amazing. Lively, fun, energetic and over all great music. There was a great range of ages in the audience. Their music truly is for everyone. My husband and I took our three teenage sons and three more of their friends. All but one of these kids are in their own ska band; and what a great influence the Cat Empire is to their own music. We cannot wait until they come back again.

I saw them a couple years ago in San Francisco and they were amazing, but tonight was something else. Not only were the horns amazingly good, but Felix was full of an energy that wasn't there in the past. It was a lot of fun with tons of dancing. The convenience fees were a bit much, but I'd pay it to see them again. It's just a lot of fun when you know their songs. Set list is what I remember, not in order.

The Cat Empire was as much fun as it is humanly possible to squeeze into two hours. The atmosphere was so energetic and the band was killin! I wish they played in the States more, especially the East Coast.

They came on with so much energy, and didn't stop grooving until after their three song encore. They just blew my mind and i suggest seeing them in person. SO AMAZING !!!!

These guys are amazing when they perform live and turn their 4-minute songs into 10-minute songs that change and excite along the way. (If you aren't particularly fond of a song, wait a minute or two and it will change!) Saw them do a 5-song set several years ago and have waited for an opportunity to see them again. The Nokia was a great venue (you can't just have people seated - you need the ability to be on the floor) and the band showed off many more talents this time around: especially Harry with his vocal range, etc. Interestingly, they didn't perform The Car Song (the primary song played by them on WXPN in Philadelphia several years ago) but I wasn't disappointed: they seem to have evolved way beyond The Car Song! I would recommend this band to anyone who loves music. Just hope that people don't ask what TYPE of music it is - it's not easily categorized (which is what makes it so appealing).

Hands down the BEST show I've ever seen. The Cat Empire could have played until 5am and I would have stayed for every song.

Wow. I am a big fan of the empire, and this is my second time seeing them. My only complaint is there was a little too much "jamming". The drum solo did absolutely nothing during "Sly" except destroy the momentum. "The Darkness" was amazing live - I had to give the entire "So Many Nights" album another listen when I got home because of that performance. I also appreciated the 2 dollar tour posters, since it was the last night of the tour. The Empire Horns were excellent. The "Wine Song" could have had at least five minutes shaved off of it. Other than that, a great performance from one of the best bands in the world!!!!

I've seen many phenomenal bands, but The Cat Empire is hands down the best live band I've ever seen. I used to say that about U2, but I these guys just dethroned them!

Wow! What a great show, I have been to 4 Cat Empire shows and they keep getting bigger each time. This band may be little recognized in the United States but in Australia they sell out Rugby stadiums in a matter of minutes, and its clear why. With a totally unique sound and an energy that permeates every fiber of the listener's being, The Cat Empire knows how to get a crowd dancing. They played a good mix of old and newer songs, and the solo's by Ollie, Harry, DJ Jumps, and the rest of the band were outstanding. This band doesn't come around often and this was their last show in the US for a while, but if you see them in your town in the future do not hesitate to see them, it is a guaranteed blast.

Outstanding! The Cat Empire were over the top enthusiastic, have incredible talent and put on an outstanding show. Definite must see!

Absolutely excellent. Incredible stage presence and energy

From the mezzanine, it was almost as much fun watching the pulsing mass of dancing fanatics as it was watching the talented musicians. If these guys don't make you feel good, then something's wrong with you. If they are ever even halfway close to you, you gotta make the trip to see them (we came down from Maine to NYC). NYC was their last performance on a long haul, so have a safe trip home mates!!! We all look forward to your new release this next summer (or winter for you!)... we all have 2 shoes for dancing!

The Prigs opened, and I don't know what they were supposed to be. They were dressed like some 80s band, ha dheavy synth influences (and a keytar!) and at first were kinda cool, but eventually were exposed as an extremely gimmick-oriented band. They used a synth-generated fireworks sound way too often; had it been during one song it would have been interesting, but it played out way too fast, as did the rest of their sound. Cat Empire was lively, engaging, and rocked the house. All five of my stars are for them.

Totally amazing show on Nov 17th... a Tuesday evening that felt "more like a Saturday and New Years's Eve"!!! The Cat Empire totally got caught up in the great vibe of the crowd, and their energy with substitute drummer, Danny Ferugio, was UNBELIEVEABLE! Best show I have seen in a LONG time!!

Best unknown Band. They need to come to the USA more often
