About Me |
|
| Northern Ireland guitarist, singer and songwriter Paul Casey has just finished his third album following hot on the heels of the critically acclaimed ‘Slow Water’. The new offering, entitled ‘Blow Away The Clouds’, presents eleven stunning new tracks that switch effortlessly from lavish string arrangements to beautifully crafted acoustic songs. Add Casey’s foot-tapping riffs, his distinctive voice and you’ve got a remarkable and timeless collection.Last year Paul was special guest on Chris Rea’s Farewell Tour. Relatively unknown to the audience when he walks on stage, Casey has the capacity crowd singing and cheering for more within minutes.The relationship between Chris Rea and Paul Casey is one of mutual respect and a love of music. Rea took the apprentice under his wing some years ago after hearing a demo tape. Their relationship and friendship has endured and today, credits for the album’s opening track ‘Stay’ are shared between the young musician and his 22-million album-selling mentor.Casey recently completed shooting the video for ‘Stay’ with young New York director Will Colby. And the filming wasn’t without incident; on the second day of shooting Casey found himself submerged in a large tank of water – with six sharks!Born in Co. Derry, Northern Ireland, Paul Casey displays an exceptional command of slide guitar and a unique flair for penning striking tunes. He has been compared to artists from David Gray to Damien Rice, Dave Matthews to Ben Harper, Gomez to Ryan Adams. In truth, however, Paul Casey is an individual who makes up his own rules and carves his own niche when song-writing and recording.On the live scene, Casey is very much at home playing with full band and slide guitar to the fore and draws from the past and present to offer a unique and rare experience. The unassuming Casey has performed on the same bill with artists such as Van Morrison, the John Butler Trio, Damien Rice and Gemma Hayes. A tireless worker, a prolific songwriter, an engaging performer, Paul Casey is a musician for fans of real music.To purchase Paul's album goto: http://www.paulcaseymusic.com/store/CHECK OUT THE VIDEO TO "STAY" BELOW. | |
