Cash Savage & The Last Drinks

About Me


In her latest musical project ol’ Landy driving cuss mouth Cash Savage has assembled a dishevelled but always well-behaved group of musicians to accompany her exceptional style of stoner-croon country & blues. Collecting musicians like an angry snowball on a hill, Cash has managed to build The Last Drinks up to be quite a large and varied backing band in a relatively short amount of time.
As with most self-respecting ramshackle bands the line-up will no doubt vary from show to show - but that seems to be Ms Savage’s plan. Apparently her drunken idea is to present songs a little differently each time, depending on which of the Last Drinks show up on the night (you might find someone tinkling the old ivorys, a bit of telecaster twang, paint brush drumming, double bass, banjo, harp, glockenspiel, lap-steel, random large men singing backup, etc).
What will always be consistent is Cash Savage’s big big voice and her obvious songwriting abilities. These tunes are solid drunken heartbreaky things that transcend the musicians presenting them to you. I like them a lot.
I was going to say ‘just like last drinks at closing time, Cash Savage & The Last Drinks will leave you wanting more’ - but that’s absolutely shithouse and Cash would probably break my thumbs... I guess you should just imagine a mixture between Janis Joplin and John Fogarty and then run over it with a landrover to gospel. If you like that you’ll probably like the band.
