The album has spent over twenty months in the Top 20 of the ARIA Australian Country Album chart, while Casey’s catalogue has amassed over 53 million combined streams.

Casey’s electrifying live show has made him one of the most popular touring acts in Australian country and the massive ‘Light It Up’ Tour has taken him across Australia including festivals such as Bluesfest, CMC Rocks, Groundwater and Gympie Muster and to the U.S along where he showcased at CMA Fest.

He is set to take his live show to new heights in 2024, when he performs at Stagecoach 2024 in Indio CA. Casey is the only Australian artist included on the line-up for the world’s biggest ticketed country music festival to be held on the Coachella site in April.

Casey is continuing the heat in 2023, with new singles ‘Summer Nights’ and ‘Boys Like Me’ becoming #1 radio hits and lighting up streaming playlists and latest single ‘Never Give Up On A Good Time’ is a party anthem which is sure to follow their success.
