Big Wheels
Big Wheels is an electrifying blend of rock and sun-soaked, melodic flair—co-fronted by songwriters Cass Ford and Lawson Doyle. What began in the laid-back suburbs of the Sunshine Coast, Australia in late 2021 has quickly evolved into a powerhouse of classic rock with a modern twist. With a shared love for legends like Fleetwood Mac, Jefferson Airplane and The Black Keys, Big Wheels craft music that resonates with the raw highs, lows, and complexities of life, all while weaving in a sound that feels both timeless and fresh.
