PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal
Just out of her teens, young Australian rocker Cassidy Paris is set to release her debut album, ‘New Sensation’, on 8th December via Frontiers. The first single and video from it for the song ‘Danger’ are available from today.
Raised on classic hard rock and inspired by fellow female artists such as Lzzy Hale, Joan Jett, Pink, Pat Benatar and Avril Lavigne, the fiercely determined Paris is on a mission to inspire a new generation of fans not only to listen to rock ‘n’ roll but also to pick up a guitar instead of a phone.
Aged just 20, Paris has already released two EPs – ‘Broken Hearted’ and ‘Flirt’ – and performed numerous live shows in her home territory, including dates with H.E.A.T and John Corabi. She is now primed to launch herself internationally with ‘New Sensation’ and will play nine UK shows with compatriots Wicked Smile and others, as well as perform at two festivals just ahead of its release. Her full schedule is:
7.11.23 LLANDUDNO Motorsport Lounge
18.11.23 BRADFORD Tapestry Arts
19.11.23 STOKE Eleven
22.11.23 CARDIFF Fuel Rock Club
23.11.23 SWINDON The Underground
25.11.23 TROON Winterstorm Festival
27.11.23 EDINBURGH Bannerman’s
28.11.23 NEWCASTLE Trillians
29.11.23 GRIMSBY Yardbirds
02.12.23 TRECCO BAY Planet Rockstock
03.12.23 LONDON Cart & Horses
Paris met the Canadian musician Paul Laine (ex-Danger Danger, The Defiants) when she was just 11, with the vocalist and multi-instrumentalist taking her under his wing in a unique mentoring role, helping to develop her artistic and songwriting ability, collaborating on and producing her music.
Wanting to deliver a strong message in her songs almost from the get-go, 2018 saw the release of ‘Stand’, a heartfelt track about ‘standing up for yourself’ as a young woman. She has maintained this stance, promoting anti-bullying at performances in schools around the Melbourne area, while she is also an active campaigner for the worldwide organisation ‘Metalheads Against Bullying’.
Paris has built a strong connection with her growing worldwide fanbase that has already seen her perform in the UK, North America and Japan. She was also invited to participate New Wave of Classic Rock WebFest twice. Meanwhile, her talent has been recognised by the guitar giant Fender, who have made her an endorsee of Fender Squier Guitars. She is also on the roster of Silverback Touring Agency.
