Casey Barnes has launched into 2016 with a bang heading over to Nashville to record exciting new tracks for his upcoming album at the legendary Sound Emporium Studios. These studios are amongst the finest in Nashville and has seen artists such as Taylor Swift, R.E.M, Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, Tom Jones, Willie Nelson, Trisha Yearwood, Kenny Rogers and Blake Shelton all record there in the past.
In what is shaping up to be some of his best recordings yet, Casey has once again teamed up with fellow Australian Rick Price as co-songwriter and producer. The songs will be mixed and mastered by Eddie Spear who is responsible for working with the likes of Jack Johnson, The White Stripes, Willie Nelson, Neil Young, Norah Jones, Sheryl Crow and more recently Chris Stapleton.
Whist in Nashville, Casey will be performing two special shows at the following venues:
