Cathy comes home

In the midst of a Reuters interview about how she turned a flopping singing career into one of the strongest songwriting gigs in pop, Cathy Dennis announces a return to the front line:

I've been working for the last year-and-a-half with a band I put together called Sexcassettes. We're shooting a video for the first single, "Killer Love," this month, and I hope to have it out by the end of the year. It's more of a band sound than produced pop. As usual, I have no idea what to expect.

She neglects to mention that she's being managed by Simon Fuller, a detail which, at a stroke, turns the band's name from something a bit cute into sounding altogether more calculated.
