Fantastic Cat: The Bitter End 2024

No feline masks worn for this gig — but Fantastic Cat still turned on loads of purr-fect charm when they played a spirited set at The Bitter End for an FUV Live concert for Marquee Members.

The "supergroup" quartet of Hollis Brown's frontman Mike Montali and pals Don DiLego, Anthony D'Amato, and Brian Dunne, have a second album, 2024's Now That's What I Call Fantastic Cat, which cobbles together irresistibly catchy folk-rockers and Americana-dusted heartbreakers. They were early guests on Paul Cavalconte's "Cavalcade" back in 2022, around the time of the group's debut album, The Very Best of Fantastic Cat.

Watch Fantastic Cat take on a trio of yearning love songs and raucous honky tonk: "Later On," "So Glad You Made It," and the birds 'n' bees-blaming "All My Fault."
