SAM CASH & THE ROMANTIC DOGS SHARE NEW ALBUM TRACK
TORONTO SONGWRITER REVEALS “ACT LIKE WE’RE IN LOVE” FROM UPCOMING ALBUM, TONGUE-IN-CHEEK VOWS, OUT MARCH 25 VIA CAMERON HOUSE RECORDS
CANADIAN TOUR DATES BEGIN MARCH 22
Only a few short weeks remain before the release of Sam Cash & The Romantic Dog’s upcoming album, Tongue-In-Cheek Vows. Today, the Toronto songwriter is sharing “Act Like We’re In Love”, which is “one of the more honest reflections on the album,” claims Cash. “It’s about being hopelessly in love with someone, but not yet realizing it. Like many of the songs on the record, it’s reflecting on that pivotal time in someone’s life when, out of nowhere, everything seems beautiful and exciting and there doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day to devour it all.”
Due out March 25 via Cameron House Records, Cash and the Dogs will support Tongue-In-Cheek Vows with a string of tour dates beginning March 22. This run takes the band from the west coast all the way home to Toronto for an album release show at the Rivoli.
The album itself perfectly captures that moment when a young artist and his cohorts find their collective voice and suddenly realize that there are no limits to what they can accomplish together. The album is Cash’ third album and the second with the Romantic Dogs. It follows the group’s acclaimed 2013 debut, Stand Together, Fall Together, an album that earned more attention than even Cash was hoping for, given how spontaneously it was made. While the rambunctiousness that drew fans and critics to that album is on full display, Cash chose to take more time to develop Tongue-In-Cheek Vows. Working in tandem with producer and bona fide Canadian alt-rock legend Ian Blurton (Change Of Heart, C’Mon, Public Animal), Cash and the Dogs have served up 11 tracks brimming with lyrics as razor-sharp as the performances driving them. Those who have followed Cash’s development to this point are sure to be stunned by the self-awareness and insight into the human condition embedded in songs like the album’s first focus track “Tossing & Turning” as well as “That Was The Summer” and “Carmen,” from which the album’s title was drawn.
Those who have been around long enough will undoubtedly hear echoes of Cash’s father Andrew Cash, part of Toronto’s original punk rock community and later one of Canada’s most respected singer-songwriters. Yet, from the time Sam launched his own music career in his late teens, he’s forged his own uncompromising path toward establishing a name within the Toronto underground rock scene.
