“Three days, two stages, 33 bands and one hell of a party…After over a year off, this was exactly the kind of festival that the rock scene needed right now and it was executed to perfection. With next years line-up already looking stacked, expect to see a similar review this time next year!” (Read more)

“Sheffield Rockin The Bowl, you were on FIRE! ”

“THE CATS ROCKED THE BOWL!!

As the Friday night headliners at Rockin the Bowl – Forged in Fire, Set in Steel in Sheffield it’s fair to say that CATS in SPACE really did bring some serious ROCK to the Bowl!

The weather cleared for the CATS taking to the main stage – our first festival headline slot – and it was a PURRFECT set.

The reception that CATS in SPACE received from both existing fans and those that had not heard us before was absolutely wonderful and made the night very special for all there!

The atmosphere at the Bowl was made even more brilliant by us seeing a large contingency of the CAT ARMY out there in force – supporting us in your CATS’ tees and cheering us along! We know that many of you had travelled some distance to see us perform at the festival and which is hugely appreciated by us all. Thank you all!

CATS in SPACE would also like to thank the organisers and all involved for their hospitality at the event and to Pete K Mally for his great introduction and mentions of the CATS throughout the day! ”
