Supergroup Fantastic Cat is Brian Dunne, Anthony D’Amato, Don DiLego, and Mike Montali and they have just released their new album. Check out the news below:   Against all odds, Fantastic Cat has successfully released their highly unanticipated sophomore album, Now That’s What I Call Fantastic Cat, out today via Missing Piece Records. The band marked the release with the official video for “So Glad You Made It,” starring Counting Crows’ Adam Duritz (who contributed vocals to the track) and hip hop legend DMC (who said yes to being in the video for some reason). We’d describe it, but you’re better off just watching it…   Now That’s What I Call Fantastic Cat has earned early praise everywhere from Rolling Stone (who called it “gloriously fun” and “a breath of fresh air”) to Q (who hailed its “beautiful harmonies” and “honky tonk Americana storytelling”). Magnet Magazine, meanwhile, declared the band’s bio “essentially useless,” which is totally fair, so here’s a quick primer if you’re new: Featuring four different instrument-swapping singer/songwriters who’ve appeared everywhere from NPR’s Tiny Desk and the New York Times to Bonnaroo and Cayamo, Fantastic Cat—lead singer Brian Dunne, lead singer Anthony D’Amato, lead singer Don [Read More]
