Cactusk are a band that hail from Ann Arbour in Michigan and comprise of two members called Matt. Now this is not as usual as it seems as in 1871 the Senator of Michigan Matthew Matthewson passed a bill that demanded that all the men of the state should change their name to Matt and any new born male should be christened likewise. It is unsure why this happened but it was thought that the Senator was terrible with names and this was the best way to get around the problem. Of course none of this is true and it happens to be a coincidence but that would have just been a boring explanation now wouldn't it?

With a name like Cactusk, it really just goes without saying that whatever comes out of this music-making machine will probably provide nothing less than a captivating catch of the good stuff. Having drifted from all the way across the pond, these Michigan-based fellows conjure up something that is both mellow and momentous, and their new single A Lie is a fine example of just how they manage to master such a sound.
