    Rock in the style of The Babies with electric folk
    Americana Mondays
    Mon 21 Oct ’24

    Although Fantastic Cat was a supergroup from the start, with four members who each had a successful solo career, two years ago the band was still an unknown rock band with a small group of fans.

With their '60s electric folk, '70s rock in the style of The Babies, and storytelling lyrics reminiscent of Bob Dylan, their fanbase quickly grew. While the debut was a collection of songs from the band members as individual songwriters, for their new album 'Now That’s What I Call Fantastic Cat,' the band wrote the songs together for the first time. They combined their strengths and collaboratively penned a collection of touching and humorous songs with catchy melodies, beautiful harmonies, and surprising arrangements.
