Shadow

Rhyme, rhythm & song

“Rock’n’roll is one of those phrases that means everything and nothing all at once. However you choose to define it though, Matty James Cassidy exudes it from every pore.” – Maximum Volume Music

“… unmistakably takes his cue from the old school rockers like Cash, Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis et al, but with lyrics and swagger that brings it bang up to date, showing that classic rock’n’roll is still relevant. Cassidy has the attitude and presence that reminds me of the late great Joe Strummer in his Mescaleros days.”
– Musipedia of Metal

“Any fellow outsiders out there – pirates, cowboys, highwaymen, holy fools, loners, drinkers, writers, fuck-ups – give this a listen, your radar will twitch. He’s one of us and this is as good as outlaw music gets.” – The Midlands Rocks

“… an effortless masterclass in all those things that make rock‘n’roll a thing, no, the thing worth dying for.” – The Midlands Rocks

“The feeling that it walks on the edge, could fall apart at any moment, but never does. That to me, is what rock’n’roll should always be. And that’s why this is a master class in the genre.” Maximum Volume Music

“… will have you hitting the repeat button and swinging the bottle until the sun comes up!” – RPM Online
