Where hip-hop meets reggae, where jazz is played with dirty
hands, where a Cuban line meets an Aussie rule, where nothing seems in
place but sounds like many places played in one earthy chord. This is
the island where THE CAT EMPIRE was born. (Written by the band in 2001)
The youngest Aussie band to turn 10 years old, in 2011 THE CAT
EMPIRE celebrate the 10th anniversary of their first show as the 6 piece
which went on to become the Empire they are today. In an industry
where few bands survive beyond the first album, if even making it that
far, 10 years is a fantastic achievement. Considering they are still
all under the age of 30, and have consolidated themselves as a world
class Australian band on the International touring circuit, it's
outstanding.
