Embark on an extraordinary journey through the life, music and spiritual adventures of Yusuf/Cat Stevens, one of the iconic figures of our time. CAT ON THE ROAD TO FINDOUT is more than a memoir - it's a profound exploration of identity, faith, and the universal search for meaning.
Cat Stevens was launched to fame in the swinging sixties, with chart-topping hits like 'Matthew and Son' and 'The First Cut is the Deepest'. His early career was drastically interrupted by a mortal battle with TB - a turning point that ignited his quest for peace and understanding. Emerging from this experience, he rapidly rose to become one of the most prolific singer-songwriting icons of the seventies, captivating the world with soul-stirring anthems like 'Wild World', 'Father and Son', Peace Train', and 'Morning Has Broken'.
After exploring Buddhism, Zen, Hinduism, and astrology, in 1975 he once again came face-to-face in a dangerous encounter with fate; a near drowning experience in the ocean led to a transformative commitment to the Omniscient Power which miraculously saved him. This was fulfilled when his brother gifted him a copy of the Qur'an. By 1977, he embraced Islam, changed his name to Yusuf Islam, and shocked the world by leaving the music industry, dedicating his life to God, family, and humanitarian work.
Yusuf's inspirational story is one of quest, survival and redemption. With over 100 million records sold and billions of streams, still today, his soulful voice and poetic lyrics continue to inspire, now intertwined with a life of activism and altruism. As a campaigner for faith education, ecological consciousness and humanitarian work, Yusuf has become a global advocate for peace and coexistence.
FINDOUT unveils the untold chapters of his remarkable journey - illustrated with dozens of drawings in Yusuf's own hand, self-penned with raw honesty and poetic insight, he reflects on the challenges, controversies, and triumphs that have defined his life, offering readers a rare glimpse into the soul of a man that his lived multiple lives in one - finally shedding light on all those hidden "in-betweens".
