Cast
28th November 2025

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 it was infused with a mystical, pseudo-hippie lyrical sensibility, which lead singer John Power expanded upon in all of his interviews. What really made Cast into a success was Power’s gift for simple, classic pop hooks, as demonstrated on the hit singles “Fine Time,” “Alright,” and “Walkaway.” Cast became a very, very popular band within Britain following the success of Oasis and Blur.
