Cass Eager at Dog’s Bar St Kilda

Cass Eager has a brand new beat and she’s hitting the road with her band this October to send new single ‘Ain’t No Stopping Me’ off into the world.

Produced by Strange Daddy (Grinspoon, Nikka Costa, Unwritten Law), it’s a lyrical testament to her resolve, while sonically it has a vintage Motown charm that hints at an Amy Winehouse swagger but sounds like she’d be at home drinking tequila with Elle King. As always, Cass has got “more soul than heaven on a busy day”. (Brag)

Vocal production was added by Simon Cohen (Justin Bieber, Will.I.Am, Illy, Thelma Plum), and mastering by Grammy Award winner William Bowden (Gotye, Eskimo Joe, Tim Finn, Hermitude).

Cass plays with her band, or alone, and while both are different magnificent beasts, one thing is constant – her voice. It carries like the wind and slams you right in your gut where you want it to. She could ‘sing the phone book to you and you wouldn’t get bored’, says Australian recording artist Diesel.

She also loves a good story and a good laugh, and Cass’ shows are just as much about her heartwarming and entertaining tales as they are about the music. Cass says: ‘Good songs take you somewhere…and good shows do the same. They’re a journey we go on together that lands us in a new destination each night.’

Named by folk-blog Timber and Steel as ‘Janis Joplin and Ben Harper’s love-child’, Cass Eager’s mix of raw blues, husky soul and lighthearted ditties are all punctuated with her unique whisky-soaked vocals. She’s entertained troops from East Timor to The Middle East, toured US/Canada, performed with Michael Franti & Spearhead and for Prince Harry.

Now she’s back – better than ever – and ready to tell the world to step aside with her new single. The ‘Ain’t No Stopping Me’ Tour takes in venues from Brisbane to Sydney to Melbourne this October.

‘Ain’t No Stopping Me’ will be available online where all good music can be found from September 22.

The track is available pre-release on Bandcamp: http://bit.ly/BandcampANSM
