Last night I did a really fun thing. REALLY FUN! Eldest and I saw The Cat Empire play at The Enmore Theatre! It was such a blast, the place was jumping! And I mean that literally -the old floorboards were bouncing people all over the place! These guys play such a fun brand of music you can't help but groove and bounce. They brought the house down! (not literally but I wouldn't put it past the old Enmore!)
There's the spiritual leader Harry (he sometimes looks like he is praying when he holds the microphone with two hands at his chest, head bowed) with his alternate vocal sounds, amazing magic trumpet, and damn clever lyrics. Felix, does as damn fine job of being the clean cut front man - sexy voice, reggae drums, and fabulously gorgeous! Combine this with the other exceptional talents (drums!! keyboard!! double bass!! DJ dude! trumpet! trombone!) and you can't help but bump and groove with a smile on your face! It was great to see these guys enjoying themselves too. They would smile and nod in time with the drum/keyboard solo admiringly - like they enjoyed making this music! Ya gotta love it.
More smiling, more music please.
I'm alive, I’m alive, Im alive,
and my eyes want to cry,
and the night and the sky is so high
and life is sublime...
They play funky, earthy fun. You can't help but jump... Think I'll get them for my 40th. They'll come wont they??
SM
Going off to ring Felix.
