We’ve Risked Everything on This Album” – Cats in Space’s Greg HartIs Suit of Armour the finest album Cats in Space have made? For me, it is—and in my second interview with Greg Hart, we explore every track and the extraordinary stories behind the music.Greg joins me, Phil Aston, for an in-depth Now Spinning Magazine conversation about an album filled with huge harmonies, spectacular twin guitars and deeply personal songwriting.We discuss the guitar-driven opening of Miracle, how We Breathe in Stereo almost became a bonus track, the emotional power of White Knight, and the experiences behind Mister Showbiz and the title song.Greg also reveals Steevi Bacon's growing contribution as a lyricist, the story behind his vocal on Analogue Kid, the years of work that shaped The Bloodsucker Waltz, and the brass arrangement that makes Twenty-Seven so moving.Along the way, we explore Chris Childs and Sam Wood's arrival, Damien Edwards's remarkable vocals, Julie Maguire's backing vocals, Ian Caple's work on the sound, and a production that includes around 120 vocal tracks on one song.This is a conversation about music, creative commitment, vulnerability and hope. Suit of Armour is released on 6 November 2026 through Esoteric Antenna / Cherry Red Records, on CD and vinyl.
