Australia's favourite festival band, THE CAT EMPIRE will be back to welcome in the Spring with a show that will blow you away - literally and figuratively.

Airline baggage handlers around the country will likely quit as a troupe of trumpets, trombones, baritone horns, guitars, drums, percussion, and a man with an orchestra in his mouth prepare to circumnavigate the country to play shows in specially selected venues.

On the road with THE CAT EMPIRE is Madre Monte, featuring Hard hitting horns funkin' up 50s style Cumbia, a tight rhythm section dissecting Afro-Colombian progressions, skankin' guitars infusing reggae grooves, and a front man recreating the ancient mythological stories of Colombia, all intertwining to create a unique 9-piece Latin Reggae outfit.

Don't miss this show. Dancing shoes and a group of friends essential.
