“Mark Skin Radio USA album review - extract - Sugar Baby. This is a solid album with a range and variety not often found in most bands today. This is a band from Central Coast in New South Wales, Australia. The land that gave us The Bee Gees, AD/DC, The Little River Band, INXS, Men at Work, Midnight Oil and Crowded House to name a few. Frontman & lyricist Mark Cashin and his band have put together an album that is clearly influenced by these earlier imports from “down under”, but also shows other musical roots that don’t stop at the Great Barrier Reef. With a little Men at Work but a whole lot more edge and a few moments that remind me a lot of Boston. Their use of power chords and ability to generate great riffs that don’t get boring along with a soaring vocal keep you engaged. But these are not musicians that are dwelling in the past. You may hear a little of these sounds on Sugar Baby which are their’s alone. To me it sounds like a very promising future.”

“Sometimes, something a little left of centre is exactly what you need, especially when it comes to music. Having an artist really take the chance to stretch the notion of the listener experience, and daring to exist outside of exactly where we usually find our ears wrapped around a tune.”

“I have had "For so Long" on repeat for over five hours. I can't get enough of this song with every replay. I can see Mark Cashin and the Lil Hussys becoming the next world wide stars, up there with U2 & Sting - i will be playing their tunes on TDB Pirate Radio.”

Timothy Dean - TDB Pirate Radio TN, USA

"I have been in broadcasting for thirty years & never have i had the pleasure of interviewing such a talent as Mark Cashin. I absolutely love the song 'For So Long' & love the way it has been sung. These guy are going places in a big way and i would like to see all my listeners buying a copy of this great new album A Velvet Hour. Please forward me copies of other songs on the album as i would love to play them"

"Sandwiched between The Commitments and The BluesAngels Mark Cashin & The Lil Hussys is like a Central Coast version of Cold Chisel....Rock ‘n roll is not dead after all."

"These home grown guys are the kind of musicians which make you wonder why the charts are flooded with so much dross...bringing rock back to the fore & witness the birth of a new Aussie legend"

"Sitting down and listening to the wondrous cacophony of sound produced by Mark Cashin & the Lil Hussys everything about them screams ‘Monster Rock Group’. Powerful weighty rock music that at times borders on pop-punk, they are incredibly polished which in today’s over populated, monotonous alternative market, is incredibly refreshing. Make no mistake, these guys are going to be huge. A most definite 6/6 from me." (Partial Review Extract)

"Ordinary People, Black & Blue and California are some of their stand out tracks - their charisma & talent seem to effortlessly combine to create these infectiously catchy & dynamic rock songs. They bring back the sound of rock" Just Another Radio

"It's not often that a band comes along that is so tight musically, each instrument working off each other perfectly to make an awesome sound. Then you add Mark's incredible voice into it and a truly epic sound is born! It's only a matter of time before these guys get signed and start doing world tours!" - Dave Brady, Epic Radio Director

Dave Brady - Epic Radio

““Mark Cashin and the Lil Hussy’s bring back the sound of the post grunge rock of the 90’s, with memorable punchy guitar, poppy vocal melodies with the right amount of grunt to please the Gen X rocker. Mark Cashin and the Lil Hussy’s are like Australia’s answer to bands like Ugly Kid Joe and Soul Asylum…” Kirby Walton, Low Tone Media”

“You guys are "the sound of the new world rock music scene", continued success.”

“Where on earth have these guys been hiding out over the years??? Mark Cashin & The Lil Hussys have delivered one of the finest rock albums to surface in Australia in a long time. After just one listen to ‘Cashology’ you’ll be realizing that these guys really do deserve to be on a world stage. But then the magic happens.... ‘Cashology’ becomes a brilliant rock album, an album that all rock fans must hunt down and add to their collection. This album should guarantee Mark Cashin & The Lil Hussys are noticed not only in Australia but also in the tough American market. This is rock music at its best! Rating: 4 stars out of 5 ”

“CASHOLOGY Review: With a voice that often brings to mind Brett Scallions from FUEL and a slick production,there isnt much to not like about this album. Its well crafted punk-tinged pop. Its inoffensive and not much you can fault here. Rated: 3.5/5”

“Max TV (1st Play) with YUMI places Mark Cashin & the Lil Hussys latest music video release 'Ordinary People' with the following artists on weekly rotation OCT 2010: Christine Aguilera, Michael Buble, Seal, Mark Cashin & the Lil Hussys, KT Tunstall, Crowded House.”
