THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE: “Just A Stranger is the debut full-length album from the L.A. duo Cash & Skye, following their successful 7” No More Candy, released on Third Man Records in 2021.
This alluring infusion of Americana and rock ’n’ roll, executed with a dash of punk ethos, documents the seven-year musical journey of songwriters Henri Cash and Sophia Skye de Reeder, and features players from Cash’s prolific and beloved band Starcrawler. Although very different from the raucous chaos of Starcrawler, these songs dive a little deeper into the traditions of country storytelling while still maintaining a raw and honest edge.
This long-awaited chronicle of songs was recorded at 64 Sound in Highland Park and Starcrawler’s basement studio in Pasadena, recorded in spare moments over the years between international tours, college classes, and eight-hour shifts. It explores modern recording techniques combined with classic analog tape recording in an attempt to naturally capture the music in a way that stays true to the sounds of the classic records that influenced them.”
