Cats in Space

Kickstart The Sun Tour 2023

Imagine if you will, a heady mix of Queen, ELO, Elton John and all things 70s... then you have Cats in Space – a band brimming with majestic songs, boasting soaring vocal harmonies, power chord guitars, thundering drums and bass and huge, symphonic keyboards.

Landing on the UK Rock scene in 2015, they quickly built up a reputation as one of the finest Classic Rock bands to emerge this century and within a short space of time, and with two critically acclaimed albums under their belts, they had toured the major UK arenas with Status Quo, Deep Purple and Thunder. They also featured with Phil Collins and Blondie at London’s Hyde Park. Subsequent headline shows, touring further hit albums, along with major festival appearances (including a special show at The London Palladium with Bonnie Tyler) further cemented the band’s reputation.

Now it is time to ‘Kickstart The Sun', a tour which began in 2022 and featured guest shows with Blue Öyster Cult. Performances roll on through 2023 as they head onto the biggest stages to date with a full two hour theatre-style show promoting the album. On release, this same album entered the UK National Rock Chart at number one, made number five in the National Independent Chart and number 11 in the National Physical Album Chart.

The band members boast impressive pedigrees, having played with such musical giants as Asia, Ian Gillan, T’Pau, The Sweet, Robin Trower and Jeff Wayne's War Of The Worlds. Their musical history will guarantee to deliver an evening of original rock music that will leave you feeling triumphant and exhilarated as well as a ‘CAT convert’. The reviews and quotes are not hype. The band always delivers classic live shows (which continually gain overwhelming reviews from the British music press) and are about to go up another level!
