Fantastic Cat Commit to the Bit With New Album and Video Featuring Adam Duritz

Fantastic Cat drop their new album 'Now That's What I Call Fantastic Cat' with video featuring Adam Duritz and DMC.

For some reason, the Counting Crows frontman and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame rapper appear in the music video for the band’s video for “So Glad You Made It.” The end result is, in typical Fantastic Cat fashion, a cheesy scream, complete with cringey one-liners and an “app” that allows the group to sing like Duritz (spoiler: he really does lend his voice to the song). Out today, the album is the group’s first collaborative effort in writing songs: Their debut was a mix of material that each member — Brian Dunne, Don DiLego, Anthony D’Amato, and Mike Montali — brought separately to the band. On Thursday, Fantastic Cat hosted a listening party that doubled as a pet adoption drive benefitting Animal Care Centers of New York.
