Indie rock band Peter Cat kick off their UK tour with a headline show at Nice N Sleazy. Support from Marceline & Before Stories.

Peter Cat are a cinematic rock band from Glasgow, whose music crackles with a dark and fierce intent. Combining art rock arrangements, surreal lyricism, and an arch vocal delivery, their signature sound is at turns both playful and apocalyptic (sometimes both at once). It’s as if Pulp and King Crimson got involved in a mild fender-bender on the M1 – and neither had insurance.
The band signed with “East Anglia’s premier record label”, Trapped Animal, in late 2025 to release their sophomore LP, Starchamber – an ambitious epic combining prog, art punk and lo-fi electronica that earned them praise from MOJO, Record Collector, and the Bandcamp global homepage.
Not an act to rest on their laurels (or anyone else’s), Peter Cat are back a mere 7 months later with ‘Innocent Driver’, a razor-sharp track that’s already received support from BBC 6 Music and BBC Introducing in Scotland. Peter Cat are looking forward to a 12-date UK tour in late 2026 – their biggest yet.

Support comes from local art rock act Marceline, new to the Glasgow scene and fresh off their debut EP In Spite of Time, which The Progressive Subway described as the sound of a band “on the road to bigger and better things”.
Further support courtesy of Aberdeen’s Before Stories, who have been delivering lowkey miserabilist minimalist bangers since 2015. Self-described as “one man in a suit shouting about things we don’t like, while another man with nice trainers does the bare minimum of music we can get away with…and still call it a song.”
