Cassia - 'Drifting'
Cassia are taking the listener on an exploration beyond the borders of planet Earth with the new single ‘Drifting’.
The last year or so has been non-stop for this Manchester trio, refusing to put the brakes on following the release of their debut album ‘Replica’ last year which was met with critical acclaim and touring the world over. The new decade is proving just as hectic, with their last single ‘Do Right’ perfectly capturing the band’s carefree, pop-driven indie style.
The follow up ‘Drifting’ follows a very similar tone to its predecessor, crisp guitar work and upbeat drums are the perfect platform to build around as the three-piece reach out to the listener in their isolation and transport them to a place even beyond this galaxy.
Initially inspired by the film ‘Interstellar’, the track perfectly captures the current situation that we find ourselves in and that feeling of “drifting” and having “no control” of what is happening in the world around us. The similarities certainly aren’t a put off but provide a perfect segment of escapism and the new era of Cassia is proving to be very exciting.
