Cat Stevens is Back: Legendary Singer Announces 2025 Tour Dates

I’m Riley Carter, and I’m here to give you the lowdown on the latest scoop. Yusuf/Cat Stevens, the iconic singer-songwriter, is hitting the road again with a nine-show tour in support of his forthcoming memoir, “Cat on the Road to Findout.” The tour kicks off on October 2, and fans are going wild.

Yusuf/Cat Stevens will be performing back-to-back nights at New York City’s Beacon Theatre on Saturday, October 11, and Sunday, October 12. These shows mark his return to the city after a seven-year hiatus. During his last North American tour, “A Cat’s Attic: 50 Year Anniversary Acoustic Tour,” Stevens delivered a career-spanning 33-song set at the Beacon Theatre. This time around, he’s promising something a little different. The 77-year-old singer will take part in “in-depth conversations” about his memoir and perform “select unplugged performances of songs” at all concerts. He even hinted on Instagram that he’ll uncover “other truths.”

The memoir, set to hit shelves on October 7, follows Yusuf/Stevens’ artistic career from his humble beginnings in the ’60s to his mainstream fame in the ’70s, and beyond. It’s a story that’s sure to captivate fans and provide a deeper understanding of the legendary singer’s life and music.

If you’re eager to see Yusuf/Cat Stevens live, tickets are available for all gigs. However, be prepared to shell out some serious cash. The lowest price we could find on tickets for any one show was $459, including fees, on Vivid Seats. Other shows start anywhere from $473 to $942, including fees. While it’s certainly expensive, it’s hard to put a price on seeing one of the greatest vocalists of the 20th century live.

In case you’re wondering, Yusuf/Cat Stevens recently performed at London’s British Summer Time concert series at Hyde Park on July 11. He took to the stage with a setlist that included hits like “The Wind,” “Sitting,” and “Wild World.” You can even watch a fan-captured version of the hourlong performance on YouTube.

In June 2023, Yusuf/Stevens released his 17th studio album, “King of a Land.” The album features polished studio instrumentations and showcases Stevens’ powerful and lilting vocals. Tracks like “Train on a Hill” and the stirring title track “King of a Land” are testaments to his enduring talent.

So, if you’re a fan of Yusuf/Cat Stevens, now’s your chance to see him live and experience his music in a whole new way. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to witness a legend in action.

Anyway, that’s the deal. Do with it what you will.
