PEAKS & VALLEYS
Peaks & Valleys is Casey's most ambitious and personal work to date. Every instrument, every note, every layer of sound was written, performed, recorded, mixed, and mastered entirely by Casey himself, a feat that is as rare as the album itself. Recorded during the hardest year of his life, Peaks & Valleys is a raw and honest document of grief, resilience, faith, and the complicated beauty of simply carrying on.
HERE I AM
Here I Am is where it all started. A deeply personal collection of original songs more than twenty years in the making, the album is a journey through the loves that shaped a younger Casey Kavanagh. First loves, great loves, lost loves, and forbidden loves. Simple and mostly acoustic, most songs are just a voice and a piano or a guitar, and the occasional sax solo. No frills. No filler. Just honest songwriting from another time in Casey's life, finally preserved and set free. Here I am. Take it or leave it.
I'M STILL HERE
I'm Still Here is the companion to Here I Am, and together the two albums tell a complete story. Where Here I Am was Casey's original songs, I'm Still Here is the music that made him who he is. Fifteen of his favorite songs to sing and play, recorded entirely by himself over one summer, with the same mellow acoustic feel as its predecessor. These aren't just covers. They're a self portrait. As Casey puts it, if he had to describe himself to someone using songs, these are the songs he'd pick. The project closes with I'm Still Here, the final song on the final album, bookending a two album journey that began with the words Here I Am. Simple, heartfelt, and entirely his own even when the songs belong to someone else.
