The Cat’s Pajamas, Philadelphia’s premier family band, brings its high-octane kid-rock to Rosemont College McShain Performing Arts Center, October 20.

Doors open at 2:00 pm. The Cats will be pulling out all the stops for this comeback concert, with a 7-piece band, in support of MusicWorks, a nonprofit music therapy service provider in Havertown working with children and young adults with autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, developmental delays, intellectual disabilities and genetic abnormalities. 

Treasured by thousands of families since 1995 and now winning over a second generation of fans, The Cat's Pajamas is noted for its multi-generational appeal and high-octane rock sound. Their shows take audiences to a wild, wonderful world of stories, dance, and music, with the hottest rhythm and the coolest horn line in the business, signature four-part harmonies, and a bonafide family dance party!

From the band shell at Central Park to the International Children's Festival at The Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, The Cat's Pajamas has received rave reviews for electrifying live concerts. The band features a slew of Philly’s most talented working musicians. At the heart of the band is lead singer Janet Schreiner, whose “ability to whip kids into a pleasurable frenzy places her among the foremost performers in the children’s music genre.” (Patrick Brogan, artistic director of Musikfest)

Last year saw the release of acclaimed 4th studio album Backseat Driver, winner of a NAPPA Gold Award, and a Parents’ Choice Silver Honor Award. This year brings Janet’s triumphant return to the stage after a prolonged illness, with all the energy and excitement of a true comeback concert. A Cat’s Pajamas concert this special doesn’t happen very often – longtime fans and families new to the band shouldn’t miss this must-see event!
