If you can't find what you're looking for - or wish to refine your search to include only references to the key search term - try putting inverted commas around the search term e.g. "Steve Lukather" or "Black Star Riders"
For example if you enter Black Star Riders the results will include all instances of "Black" "Star" and "Riders". The search will also be slower.

Gig review: CATS IN SPACE – Wilde Theatre, South Hill Park, Bracknell, 20 July 2023
Despite latest album ‘Kickstart the Sun’ being for me their finest achievement, Cats in Space’s autumn tour in 2022 was still bedevilled by audiences a fraction of what they deserved. It therefore represented a bold gamble when, post-tour, the band … Continue reading

Gig review: CATS IN SPACE – Sub 89, Reading, 26 October 2022
2022 has seen the release of what for me is Cats in Space’s finest hour yet in their fifth studio release ‘Kickstart the Sun’. The double album fully justified their decision last year to curtail some tour dates to concentrate … Continue reading
Gig review: CATS IN SPACE – The Garage, Highbury, London, 2 October 2021

Gig review: BONNIE TYLER/Cats In Space – London Palladium, 18 September 2019
I wonder if the rock world underestimates Bonnie Tyler. Allied to the fact she has been more of a singles than an albums artist, and an interpreter of other people’s songs rather than her own, the overblown power ballads and … Continue reading
Gig review: CATS IN SPACE, SPACE ELEVATOR – Harlequin Theatre, Redhill, 29 September 2016
Quite apart from the similarity in names, the pairing of Cats In Space and Space Elevator was a perfect match. Both are new acts, albeit with seasoned musicians who have been on the scene a while, trying to do something … Continue reading

Gig review: CATS IN SPACE – Half Moon, Putney, London, 6 January 2016
One of the more left field bands that emerged in 2015 were the oddly named Cats In Space, with their affectionate homage to the seventies and in particular the lush soft rock sounds of the latter half of the decade … Continue reading
