The Cat Empire - So Many Nights

So Many Nights was recorded in Melbourne (at Sing Sing Studios), and the overdubs were done in Malibu while we were in town to perform on Jay Leno. The house and studio where we lived in Malibu overlooked the Pacific Ocean. Worth over 10 million USA $'s; it was owned by a guy who made his money Producing Karaoke tunes.

This record is the result of music written and developed on the road and is perhaps a tribute to many nights we have played in hundreds of cities throughout the world.

Produced by John Porter (Ryan Adams, The Smiths, Los Lonely Boys), this is the first time the Cat Empire recorded an album with a Producer. John was also a guitarist for bands such as Roxy Music and Eric Clapton's band and performs guitar on Panama and Slide Guitar on No Longer There.

The experience of recording and staying in Malibu was at the end of the spectrum from recording the previous album in Cuba. The result is a more pristine production and the next chapter in the story of The Cat Empire.
