We started playing together as a trio in late 1999. Ollie McGill on Rhodes, Felix Riebl on Timbales, and Ryan Monro on Double Bass. It was sublime, and dark, funny, unique, fantastic, bright, and moody all at the same time. Then came a time when things started to open out. We had been playing mostly in jazz clubs for a while, and when we finished our early gigs, Ollie and I would go to lock up parties and play there until the sun came up. It was something like a music mafia, where all the best musicians would seem to go to the same bars and play, and sing, and dance together. We were 19 and spent so much of the week running a muck. On the other side, Felix's weekends were being spent at the beach with the most laid back, good humoured, generous crew that you co More... (Submit New The Cat Empire Lyrics) (Submit New The Cat Empire Lyrics) Review about The Cat Empire Gotta love 'em | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Crowd performed by The Cat Empire My older brother gave me a copy of the CD this is on. It took a few listens, but after awhile I began to appreciate exactly how good this group is - remarkable lyrics, and a remarkable performance of those lyrics. This was one of my favorites. great times start with this song | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Sly performed by The Cat Empire this "two shoes" album is fantastic and this song is a perfect way to kick it off. it's so much fun and has so much energy you can't help but be swallowed up in it. this album, and therefore this song, has started off my weekend — every weekend — since i bought the CD a few years ago. Beautiful | Reviewer: Brittle ------ About the song Miserere performed by The Cat Empire I've seen these guys live once....it was so beautiful, it was better than any CD i've ever listened to. Fucking gorgeous music....I love The Cat Empire... Long live living, if living can be this. xo epic | Reviewer: Brittle ------ About the song Two Shoes performed by The Cat Empire this band is so amazing; so f***ing fantastic; brilliant. when i first heard the Cat Empire, it was at the Woodford Folk Festival. I must have been eleven or twelve, so memory might be a little tainted, but it was amazing. they were so good. of all the bands i've seen live, The Cat Empire has got to be in the top five of my favourite live shows. After the festival when i went home, i hunted everywhere until i bought the album "Two Shoes". It's a great album, but nothing beats live performances, the brass (trumpets, trombones etc) are just so much more amazing when you're in the same space as them. Oh wow, i do ramble on. But man, this guys are so f***ing awesome. I do indeedy recommend going to their gigs, or at least purchasing their albums. beautiful music <3 Pleasure | Reviewer: Red Rain ------ About the song Miserere performed by The Cat Empire One of the single greatest musical achievements to date! Long live the Cat Empire if the Cat Empire can do this ;o) Missed them live at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival one year and haven't had another chance yet. Gutted! Time yet and I'll be bringing Two Shoes for dancing! speechless | Reviewer: cuthbert ------ About the song Miserere performed by The Cat Empire wow, really truly awesome song. gives me goosebumps every time i listen to it. this is one of the most original, unique bands i've had the pleasure of discovering in a long time. hopefully one day i'll have the pleasure to listen to them live. Amazing! | Reviewer: Debby ------ About the song Miserere performed by The Cat Empire This evening I visited a show by The Ceasar Twins. Miserere was one of the songs they used and I was completely overwhelmed by it. Ran to the technician after the show to ask the playlist. Now all I have to do is find the album... Debby, The Netherlands (Europe) Miserere | Reviewer: EmoWolfMamaKitty ------ About the song Miserere performed by The Cat Empire Hai, MattFish, this song is absolutely gorgeous. I pity the people who haven't heard it. Poor mortal fools. xD I listened to it in endless repeat in Non-Sport and everyone could hear the trumpet because of the goddamn earphones I was using. Ghetto asses laughed and called it a crap song. I damned them to the depths of music hell with their doof-doof. Miserere | Reviewer: TheMattfish ------ About the song Miserere performed by The Cat Empire This has to be one of the most beautiful songs ever. It's such a great song. If you haven't heard it you are really missing out. What a sound!! | Reviewer: Jess ------ About artist/band The Cat Empire Wow you guys are amazing and your sound is so unique. I was sitting in my science class listening to Protons, Neutrons, Electrons ha ha ha oh how ironic. You guys have really fun, happy music. Keep writing more amazing songs for all of Australia! The Best Band ever from Oz | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About artist/band The Cat Empire This band made me dance at 11 am at festival after over 40 hours without sleep and no drugs. They are amazingly raw and quite possibly the best sound around (Oi Va Voi are a challenger). From Nothing to the Wine Song, Two Shoes to The Chariot, these songs are great fun and very artisitic. All I can say, is finally after hundreds of years something good has come out of Australia.
