The Cat Empire To Embark On World Tour

With the international release of their upcoming album only weeks away, the Cat Empire have announced a huge world tour with plenty of local dates locked in.

Steal The Light comes out in May, marking the band's first worldwide independent release. They kick-off the tour in North America in June, finishing up in Europe during November. They'll play ten shows here in September. Joining them onstage in Oz will be Hiatus Kaiyote and Animaux (Melb only).
