"The notion of creating a femme-fronted pop rock project has culminated in Cash," explains guitarist and singer Cassie McCawley.
The Melbourne duo, channelling Chrissy Amphlett, a lil' Gwen Stefani and a lotta classic rock'n'roll (think KISS, Queens Of The Stone Age and Deep Purple) consists of McCawley and drummer Acid, with Alex Gawly in support on bass. Their kickass single Lightning Striking was recorded in St Kilda. "We chose this studio as it has the renowned Neve desk and shit-hot gear. We worked with a Melbourne-based producer there who produced one of Acid's favourite records as a teenager. There is also a dog there, which is cool," explains McCawley.
"We played Lightning Striking at several shows before deciding to record it. It has attitude and a killer riff, with punchy drums. We think it's a song that is fierce and holds its own ground." Cash are working on releasing an EP or an album: "[We] can't say yet," she laughs. "We have recorded another song or two, though. The next single will be more pop. I think our fans will really fall in love with this one."
