Yusuf / Cat Stevens has announced a book tour accompanying the release of his new memoir, "Cat on the Road to Findout."
Yusuf / Cat Stevens will embark on a limited run of special live events across North America this fall, titled, Cat On The Road To Findout—An Evening Of Tales, Tunes, And Other Mysteries.
Produced by Live Nation, the tour begins October 2nd at The Met Philadelphia. Beforehand, Yusuf will stage seven events in the U.K., starting on September 6th in Cambridge.
Each night, Stevens will engage in an in-depth conversation about his new memoir, which chronicles his evolution from chart-topping pop star to spiritual explorer. The evening will also feature select unplugged performances of songs, offering an intimate journey through the life and music of the artist.
"Cat on the Road" to Findout will be published in hardback, ebook, and audiobook format by Genesis Publications in North America on October 7th and by Constable in the U.K. on September 18th. Pre-order the book here.
More than a book tour, it will be a rare opportunity to hear Stevens reflect on the triumphs, trials, and transcendental quest that shaped his music and worldview — and to experience the timeless messages of hope, peace, and personal truth that continue to resonate through his work.
In addition to the performance, the audience will have a chance to view Yusuf's personal art, illustrations and photographs, flickering film, and treasured artifacts.
Speaking about the book tour, Yusuf/Cat Stevens says, "Having passed through the exhaustingly complex maze of everyday material life, ascending the dizzying heights of wealth, recognition, and artistic achievements, I think I've got a few things to share. Keeping an open mind was part of the nature I instinctively maintained as a creative songwriter. Nothing was off-bounds. Music was a way of discovering my purpose within the universe. I just kept on exploring, reading, and learning more, ignoring myths and warnings and crossing dangerous-looking bridges into the vast ranges of philosophies and through the veils of the spiritual unknown".
"Now I have written a book which explains what I've learned and the stories along the way," he adds. "That doesn't make me a teacher, but more of a potential specimen for those who are searching and pursuing happiness on all sides of the divide. Believe me, folks, it's out there!"
