Bands to Watch: Cahoots


Article By: Kat Quach

Cahoots is pop trio made up of Currice, Matt DeFreitas, and Tom Joseph Law. The band resides in London, England and were only formed at the beginning of this year. The boys are all Youtubers and have their own separate singing channels but met last year at a Youtube workshop, forming Cahoots! The band started off as an experiment to see if they would work out together after realizing how passionate they all were about music. They upload covers and miscellaneous videos twice a week on their band Youtube channel as well as occasionally doing their own covers on their separate channels. Combined, the boys have over 300k subscribers and as a band, 23k subscribers. Their first original song is called “Shoes”. The boys sing about how they try their best everyday to have a good day despite facing situations like poor weather but all they really need are their shoes because with them, it helps keep them going through everything. My personal favourite cover that they’ve done is of “The One” by Kodaline. I love Kodaline and I think the boys did a great job in the cover. It’s all stripped down and live with the boys sitting by a window and Tom on guitar. Watching this cover, you can really see how passionate and musically driven they are when they’re singing and I hope these guys get far! They recently entered and won the #TakeTheStage contest from Vodafone and covered “Sugar” by Maroon 5 at the Capital Summertime Ball in Wembley Stadium. Cahoots are currently working on releasing original music each month for their fans on Youtube.
