Their work led to an opening spot on tour with The Subways in 2023. Supported by the Arts Council and Help Musicians, CATBEAR has played at The Great Escape festival, Soho House showcases, and has upcoming shows in London and Bristol this autumn. They performed on the main stage at Bristol Pride in 2024 and released their singles “Rush” in July and “Grow Up” in September.
