Cast - Love Is The Call

As one of the most traditional guitar bands to emerge during the Brit-pop era of the mid-90s Cast have carved out a sound that was heavily indebted to the British Invasion of the early-60s, yet infused with a mystical, pseudo-hippie lyrical sensibility. What really made Cast a success was singer John Power's gift for simple, classic pop hooks, as demonstrated on the hit singles 'Fine Time', 'Alright' and 'Walkaway'. With seven Top 10 singles, three Top 10 albums and a rich catalogue of timeless songs including ‘Walkway’, and ‘Alright’, Cast were one of the big success stories of the Britpop era.

With Power’s gift for sparkling melodies and instantly additive hooks as strong as ever, the singer hinted that the new album Love Is The Call will feel like a missing link between his time with The La’s and Cast’s first breakthrough; their debut album All Change.
