Cast emerged when John Power stepped out of The La's to front a band built on ringing chords and unshakeable hooks.

Their early albums bottled the optimism of mid-90s UK radio—singalongs for festivals and commuter headphones alike.

Power’s songwriting never lost its melodic spine, so revisits to deep cuts still reward listeners who lean on guitar-centric formats.
