We’re bringing forward Ausmusic T-Shirt Day for a special edition on Friday 17 April 👕
It’s happening earlier than usual because a lot of the artists we love are doing it tough right now ❤️
Get your laundry sorted, dig a little deeper into your wardrobe and show us (and your mates) your best threads with the hashtag #AusmusicTShirtDay 🤳
Our industry, like many, is under serious global threat as gatherings in public spaces are cancelled. We have experienced this first-hand with 17 imminent shows cancelled, bringing us to our knees financially. There is no bailout package for musicians and songwriters and yet, we all desperately need their beauty reflected in the world so we can find our way through dark times. This problem is much bigger than us, and we fully acknowledge there are musicians who will be worse off than we are, which is why we have come up with an idea to help musicians globally, which we hope you will get behind,
UK and Spain…
Only 4 shows into the tour we are regretfully forced to cancel the rest of the dates due to international circumstances surrounding COVID-19. Check your emails today for information related to your refund , and please accept our sincerest apologies. Stay safe, look after yourselves and each other, and we will return to create more musical moments with you as soon as we can make it possible. May we all learn to live with less haste, less waste and more compassion during these crazy times. If you’re feeling low, put on our tunes and dance in your lounge-room.
We would love your help to get crowd favourite ‘Brighter Than Gold’ in Triple J’s #Hottest100 of the Decade.

Grab your gumboots, because this April, for the very first time, we are playing Groovin The Moo. Time to organise the next adventure with your festival buddies for a regional party weekend.
Countdown is on… #GTM2020
Surprise! We have just released a live version of Oscar Wilde featuring Grace Barbé for your enjoyment.
We were very honoured to share the stage with Grace Barbé and her talented band on our recent lap of Australia. Oscar Wilde was one of the first songs we played live from Stolen Diamonds, and it has been a pleasure to perform all over the world. Please enjoy this special version, recorded live at the Odeon Theatre in Hobart.
Click here to stream it now (and all weekend) on your favourite streaming service. 🎤🎷🕺🏻💃🏾.
Through your incredible support of The Cat Empire, 10,400 of you have raised money for the work of Children’s Ground. We have donated $1 from every ticket sold during our recent tour to this inspiring organisation. The $10,400 will enable Children’s Ground and local artists to develop five new early learning books for First Nations children, in two First Nations languages. The money will also cover the publishing costs of the first print run of 1,500 of books. We look forward to sharing these books with you in 2020.
