Cities is an album by The Cat Empire released on 1 April 2006. A strictly limited release, 10,000 individually numbered copies have been made in digipak format. On 29 October, the album won an ARIA Music Award under the category: Awards for Fine Arts, Best World Music Album. The album was recorded at Sing Sing Studios in Richmond, Melbourne, Australia. As well as The Cat Empire and the Empire Horns, this project features many guest artists, including: ⁕Alyssa Conrau, ⁕Kirsty Conrau, ⁕Novak Conrad, ⁕Julie O'Hara, ⁕Nina Ferro, ⁕Greg Sheehan, ⁕Bobby Singh, and ⁕Kumar Shome . The album as a whole has a greater diversity in terms of style than seen on previous albums - Song for the Day, Luck Song, and Know Your Name have a prominent reggae feel, while Miss Soul, Side to Side, Boogaloo and Motion show classic R&B and Soul influences. There's even some polka thrown into the mix in the form of Waltz, and Anymore takes on a more traditional latin jazz style. There are also guitar parts in many tracks, an instrument which until now has been a rare occurrence in The Cat Empire's music. LESS
