About

Yusuf, popularly known as Cat Stevens, one of the best-selling singer-songwriters in history, is back on tour again, mixing evergreen hits, such as "Wide World," "Morning Has Broken" and "Moonshadow," with powerful new songs for the new millennium. In concert, his ringing voice radiates serenity, infusing his thrilled audiences with a brightening glow. His 2009 album tour for "Roadsinger" included acclaimed TV appearances with Jay Leno, Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert. In 2010, he rocked in Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert's Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear, and his long-awaited European tour in 2011 packed concert arenas in Germany, France, the Netherlands, Austria and Belgium.
Yusuf first gained world renown as Cat Stevens in the '70s with albums such as "Tea for the Tillerman," "Teaser and the Firecat" and "Catch a Bull at Four," and his songs continue to be covered by many artists. "Peace Train" was a hit for Dolly Parton and also used in the movie soundtracks for "We Are Marshall" and "Remember the Titans," and stirringly sung by Yusuf himself for the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize Concert.

Cat Stevens became Yusuf Islam in 1977 when he converted to Islam. His art, always layered with the lyricism of mystics, found a further fusion of the spirit and human worlds in the musical core of the Koran. He continued to create best-selling albums, and his charitable work for peace and education expanded exponentially. In 2005, ASCAP named his song, "The First Cut Is the Deepest," Song of the Year, also naming him Songwriter of the Year. In 2013, he was nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

A ticket for one of his concerts is like a key to a treasure chest, unlocking even more musical gold from this long-loved troubadour of the 20th and 21st centuries.

    *** SO WORTH IT ***

    by ashburger on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Over-the-top, magically engaging, musically enthralling! It was a lifetime opportunity and will go down in this old girl's record book as one of the best, if not the best show ever. I was captivated by Cat Stevens' striking presence while he intimately shared details of his life with sincerity and a clever sense of humor, leaving inspiring messages along the way. The Pantages Theatre provided the perfect setting with great sound quality to relish in the brilliant musical performance by The Legend and his accompanying musicians. It was a big deal pulling the trigger to purchase the ticket, but in the end, I would have paid more.

    The night was unbelievable

    by denneky on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I have been to at least a thousand shows in my 55 years, and this show is now in my top 5. Cat Stevens is such a kind and genuine soul - he moves people to make them feel and love on a level that is unworldly. His journey through life that was so sacred to him has kept us on that journey with him as anyone could tell on Friday night from the squeals of joy from the audience with every song. I feel so grateful to have had the chance to see him live - definitely a once in a lifetime experience unless you are lucky enough to see him twice. I hope he will make touring an annual event so we can all feel the blessing and joy he brings through his music.

    Just fantastic!

    by dduty on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    His songs are a combination of poetry and pop/folk music. His voice has aged beautifully, and his concert was one of my all-time favorites. For a man who dropped out of the limelight for nearly three decades, he sounded genuinely happy to be performing again. You could tell in the theater that Cat was a huge part of everyone's youth, and it felt like a big thank-you from all of us to him. It was more than a concert, it was his life story in words and music. I'll be forever grateful to him for allowing us into his life for just under three hours.

    ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS I HAVE EVER SEEN

    by maliagirl on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I have loved CAT Stevens since I was a teen. I waited 40 years to see him. WOW was he great. The two musicians on stage with him were FANASTIC. The Stage set with a cabin , an old Victrola, a turntable and smoke coming from the cabin were stunning..- oh yes and the full moon - who designed this - It was gorgeous. His voice - great- the songs -- all his hits and some I have nevr heard- and the back up band ( 2 guys ) added so much to the musicality of the show.

    Once in a Lifetime experience

    by FlipaChris on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Hearing songs that you've known for decades, sung by Cat Stevens himself is priceless. His voice is unchanged and he has an amazing charm and connection with an audience that loves him. Highly recommend seeing him if you have the chance.

    Cat Stevens

    by Bucky58 on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Simply outstanding. Not a flaw in his show and his voice was just like it sounded all those years ago! He could not have put on a better show, all the hits and some other great songs and stories of his life in music.

    Wow, just wow.

    by Anonymous on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Cat Stevens is living proof that clean living does the body, and more importantly here, the voice, good. Cat sounded just like "himself"- the depth and beauty of his voice is still intact. He also a wonderfully personable and charming performer and I hope that he reconsiders his retirement even further.

    Going back in time

    by CMRich on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    Such a fabulous concert. Cat sounded just like he did in my youth. Trouble hitting high or low notes, but poked fun at self. Played longer than expected and a good variety of his songs, plus a couple of Beatles songs. The only drawback was getting into the concert. The metal detectors and search of attendees, meant that a lot of people were in line (Disneyland style) when concert was supposed to start. Start was postponed for 30 minutes.

    Great Show

    by gkornacki on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I never thought I would be able to see him play live. It was an absolute treat. I've been listening to his music since I stole my fathers Cat Stevens Greatest hits when I was about 10 years ago.

    the Cat was all up in the Hat!

    by Thackerville on 10/10/16Louise M. Davies Symphony Hall - San Francisco

    I flew from the Dallas area to see this show, I knew it would be a one-time opportunity, and Cat has not played with in 700 miles of DFW.. at least not in the past 40 years! he delivered, 32 songs, everything you might want to hear (save for "another Saturday night, and "days of the old schoolyard).. Cat was in very good voice and form, totally met my high expectations!

    Uplifting

    by Dreamer123 on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    It was surreal to hear the legend himself singing, "The first cut is the deepest," as I've heard that song since I was a little girl. The Yusuf/Cat Stevens concert was nothing short of inspiring as Yusuf took us on a journey of his remarkable life, one that in contrast to our current self-obsessed world, was filled with questions and seeking. His musical talent beautifully compliments a beautiful soul and an intelligent mind. The acoustics were amazing and Cat's voice is still as powerful as always. This is show worth going to. You'll feel uplifted for days afterward.

    Cat Stevens was wonderful

    by jheart on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I felt so luck to finally see Cat Steven's in person. He was wonderful. Love his songs love his guitar playing. Could have done w/o the bass drum (too loud), but he played many of the songs I love. I wish he played more of his later songs than some of the earlier unknowns. I would see him again. Great show. no one was supposed to be recording the show, but many kept trying w/cell phones. The ushers tried to stop them constantly. I wish people would just follow the rules. It is annoying to us to see those phone screens during show. Also, I loved the way the tickets were managed to avoid scalping. Thanks Cat!

    Unforgettable Cat

    by HD4815 on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    RIght from opening with The Wind and Don't Be Shy, I knew this was going to be a special night. It was beautiful, raw, emotional and unforgettable. Over 2.5 hours, he only played one song written after 1973, so it was all about the old music.

    I have been a Cat Stevens fan for over 40 years. I was just absolutely in awe of seeing him (again), It was a privilege being in the attic. Just a wonderful evening.

    Wow, Just Wow!

    by ACatFanAttic on 10/10/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I have been a Cat Stevens fan since 1974; I had posters that I kissed goodnight, and I was going to marry him because that's how 14-year-old dreamed back then. Needless to say, I was excited to see my teenage crush live and in person, and I was NOT disappointed. His voice is so beautiful and pure. The lighthearted, humorous style in his storytelling set just the right tone to weave a beautiful tapestry of his life in music. This was the best concert / show that I've ever seen. I didn't want it to end.

    Awesome Cat Stevens

    by 70sLuver on 10/9/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    As a child of the 60's and 70's I had always promised myself that if Cat ever toured again I would try to see him and he didn't disappoint. Many of the oldsters like Stephen Stills have lost a great deal of their voices or want to play a lot of new material that none of us care about, but not Cat Stevens. He focused on all the songs that we grew up with and didn't skip any of his big hits while sounding great. Simply our favorite concert ever.

    Some lasting memories

    by kawasakiC on 10/9/16Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    I had missed a couple of Yusuf"s shows in the past. I was wiped out by his voice, which was as rich as when Stevens had left the industry almost thirty years ago. His natural, warm, storytelling style, graced with such honesty, and tight trio of musicians, created a phenomenal concert.
