Cassia Announces New Album “everyone, outside”, Shares New Song “friends”
British indie pop band Cassia, consisting of Robert Ellis (guitar/vocals), Louis Cotterill (bass/vocals) and Jacob Leff (drums/vocals), has announced their upcoming third studio album “everyone, outside” will be released on April 11, 2025.
The album is their first LP in three years since the 2022 album “Why You Lacking Energy?” and comprises 13 songs.
From the album, the band released the third single called “friends” on January 24, 2025.
The song is accompanied by the Artur Althen-directed music video.
The track was written by Jacob Leff, Louis Cotterill, and Robert Ellis. Produced by Robert Ellis and Jacob Leff.
The band said of the song, “This song and the video started as a letter to an old friend I haven't seen or spoken to in years. It's about that person you were closest to when you were young, the one who knew everything about you, and you knew everything about them. It was you two against the world, but life takes you in different directions, and you drift apart, but that bond always remains. The video stars Reggie and Ellis who really brought the meaning of the song to life.”- The band recorded the album at a studio they built themselves in Macclesfield.
The album's title is a metaphor for embracing your truest self and reflection of a band who are at their happiest outside.
The band frontman Robert Ellis said of the album title, “That title, 'everyone, outside' started as a song about how weird it is that we stay inside all the time when being out in nature always makes us feel better. Over time, it came to mean more than that - like a metaphor for being your truest, most natural self, unburdened, like when no one's watching.”
Drummer Jacob Leff added, “The time we spent in Berlin taught us so much, but coming back home to Macclesfield allowed us to really focus on making something that felt like it came from us. No distractions, just pure creativity.” -
