CATS in SPACE + Ian Danter

They are calling it 'Power Pop Rock', and their aim is to unashamedly take you back to the heady days of the 1970s when bands like Queen, ELO, 10cc, Supertramp & Sweet, ruled the airwaves.

CATS in SPACE:

Yes, 'Cats in Space' are retro, yet they have a sound that has been unheard for many years, in fact probably since those American underground pop masters 'Jellyfish'. Founding 'cat' Greg Hart has recruited a wealth of experience to join him in his musical spaceship destined to land here on Earth as we speak. The debut long player is entitled 'TOO MANY GODS', is out in October 2015 and consists of a collection of commercial hit songs all played out and produced in an impeccable manner. The debut single 'Mr Heartache' written by Greg and 10cc's Mick Wilson, is released this September and features a guest appearance from the legendary Andy Scott from 'Sweet'.

The album features soaring multi tracked vocal harmonies nestled alongside guitar orchestrations, dazzling keyboards, bombastic drums, thundering bass and luscious pianos, and the music is there to be enjoyed in one continuous journey, as it used to be in those awesome analogue days...

Ian Danter:

Ian plays drums, guitars, bass, keyboards and sings background vocals and lead on the three tracks. Lee Small, lead vocalist from the UK hard rock outfit SHY, lends his powerful Dioesque vocals to 12 of the 15 tracks on the CD. Upon first listening to 'Prove You Wrong' classic rock artists like Rainbow and dio immediately spring to mind. Ian explains, "I love the music I grew up on because it made me stop and listen. It also made me appreciate good melody and how to construct a song. That is what 'Prove You Wrong' set out to do to recreate the era of the song, the riff, the FEEL rather than following a trend."
