Few artists can command a stage and capture an audience quite like Australian Pop-RnB powerhouse Cat Thompson. With the release of her electrifying new single Dance Fire, she once again proves why she’s one of the country’s most compelling voices in contemporary music.


From the very first beat, Dance Fire surges with an energy that feels impossible to resist. It’s an anthem for late nights and packed dance floors, a track that pulses with vibrant rhythm and invites listeners to let loose. Cat’s soulful vocals glide over the beat with effortless confidence, bringing a perfect balance of RnB smoothness and pop immediacy. The single, written by Cat herself, captures the spirit of feminine confidence and the joy of losing yourself in the rhythm of the moment.

The song’s sonic polish comes courtesy of acclaimed producer Jhay C, whose credits span Disney, Netflix, MTV, and collaborations with some of Australia’s biggest names, including Guy Sebastian and Shannon Noll. Under his production, Dance Fire bursts with clarity and colour, shimmering with hooks that are destined to light up playlists around the world.


While Dance Fire is Cat Thompson’s latest triumph, it’s also part of a much bigger story. Born in Brisbane to a Northern Irish father and Filipino mother, Cat’s multicultural upbringing and lifelong passion for performance have shaped an artist with a truly global outlook. From her early days playing piano and writing poetry, she discovered songwriting as a way to fuse her creativity into something deeply personal yet universally resonant. Over the years, she has performed across Australia and internationally in places like the Solomon Islands, Vietnam, and the Philippines, sharing stages with international icons such as Eve, Lloyd, and The Jabbawockeez, as well as Philippine stars Dingdong Avanzado and Jessa Zaragoza.

Cat’s journey has been defined not just by her captivating live performances, but also by her songwriting and collaborative spirit. Her music has been heard in more than 30 countries, including her work for “Asia’s Nightingale” Lani Misalucha on the album Force Called Woman. She has also embraced cross-genre collaborations, from the Afrobeats anthem Malanga with Future Destin — which garnered international airplay and a nomination at the Queensland Music Awards — to the dreamy Hip Hop track Float with Canadian rapper Neeq, and the Latin-infused heartbreak ballad If I Go with artists Mauro Ferdinand, Lakesick and Moraii. Each project has revealed a different shade of Cat’s artistry, proving her ability to adapt, innovate, and connect across borders.


In recent years, her achievements have grown steadily. Her single Who You Gonna Call broke into America’s NashVegas Radio Top 30 and AMR Australia’s Top 50, while her track Be Mine and subsequent interview on SideWalks Entertainment gave her national television exposure in the United States. Every release feels like another step forward, and with Dance Fire, Cat is moving with undeniable momentum toward becoming a global name.

At the heart of it all, Cat Thompson remains a storyteller — an artist who transforms her own passion and experience into music that resonates far beyond the studio walls. Based in Byron Bay, where she built her own recording studio on a farm by the beach, she continues to create from a place that is deeply personal yet outward-looking, weaving her roots into music that speaks to audiences everywhere.


Dance Fire is more than just a single — it’s a declaration. It’s Cat Thompson standing tall as an artist who is unafraid to embrace joy, confidence, and rhythm, inviting us all to step onto the dance floor and let go. With its infectious beat, powerful vocal delivery, and world-class production, Dance Fire is destined to be one of those tracks that stays on repeat long after the party ends.
