Woodstock’s Co-Producer/Co-Founder,Michael Lang, said today“Brian Cadd’s vocal resonance and stage performance reminds me of my friends in The Band. His new album Silver City rocks and I look forward to welcoming him at Woodstock 50” Singer, songwriter, producer –Brian Caddhas now, officially, done it all. Cadd kicked off his career with two of the most celebrated bands of their day,The GroopandAxiom, with hits Woman You’re Breaking Me and A Little Ray of Sunshine. He followed this with a string of massive hits as a solo artist with songs like Ginger Man, Let Go, Alvin Purple and the soundtrack to the classic Morning of the Earth surf movie, before moving into a ‘behind-the-scenes’ role in the music industry, going on to produce and work alongside music heavyweights from around the globe. Brian has written songs for the likes of Joe Cocker, Ringo Starr, John Farnham, Little River Band, Bonnie Tyler, Glen Campbell and The Pointer Sisters and his iconic status was acknowledged when he was inducted into the 2007 Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Hall of Fame. 2019 has already seen the release of Brian’s brand-new Americana inspired album,Silver City, recorded in Nashville with legendary producerMark Moffatt.Silver Citytakes Brian’s musical history and consolidates it into a remarkable journey to critical reviews including: “… here is one the most versatile and respected figures in Australian music at his shining best”– The Australian Silver Citydebuted in the Top 10 on the ARIA Country Album Chart and the AIR Chart and tracks have been added to radio around the country.
