THE CASHEWS

We are contemporary acoustic nuts who describe our music as original indie-folk, because acoustic-brain-pop is too challenging a category for most people to comprehend.

Quirky, catchy, melodious, grounded original songs with a lingering social conscience.

come and see us

Of course you can see us at a concert, but we love playing in unique places and at meaningful events, from underpasses, hilltops, lakesides or pop up events.

In warmer months we stage 'Guerrilla Gigs' in iconic Canberra landscapes. Check our Facebook or Instagram page for Guerilla Gigs or sign up for our Newsletter to find out more.
