"I wanted this global pause to mean something. I needed togive myself a sense of purpose when there was nothing very positive going on in the world and so I didthe only thing I could do which was write, exercise,read and write some more. I'm grateful that I was ableto stay motivated and had more than enough time to hone in on my craft and really explore, learn anddevelop my songwriting and production." The latest release titled 'Blue eyes' is out June 22. "BlueEyesnarrative was inspired by a love letter that I wrote to my favourite internet girl as a young teenager. Ifound old notebooks/lyrics/poems at my parents houseopened one up and felt instant nostalgia andthought, this has to be a song. It's clever, cute, and probably going to be relatable to many."Already lauded by Triple J as having an "enchanting performance, charismatic vocals, [all] blendedamong sublime [with] warm guitar tones [and] a groove that's hard to ignore'' there's no telling what newheights Cashman can achieve over this next chapter of his promising career.
