So Many Nights by The Cat Empire
So Many Nights is an album by The Cat Empire, released in 2007. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 4 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “So Many Nights”, on 3 lists with a best position of #36.
So Many Nights, the Cat Empire's fourth studio album, came out on 22 September 2007, and the Melbourne band celebrated with a midnight launch party at the Prince of Wales. Felix Riebl and trumpeter Harry James Angus share lead vocals, Ollie McGill works the keys, Ryan Monro plays bass, Will Hull-Brown drums and Jamshid Khadiwala mans the turntables, and the whole thing bubbles with their usual stew of jazz, funk, ska and rock, spiced with Latin rhythm.
"No Longer There" went out first as a single on 8 September, and the band streamed the entire album for free three days before release, a savvy move in 2007. It debuted at number two on the ARIA albums chart. Then they hit the road, and on 14 October they set a record at Sydney's Metro Theatre by playing eight shows in seven nights, one better than You Am I's seven.
