Casey’s second single released September 13, 2022, and you can check it out here. Her first single for the label, “Chasing Rainbows,” earned a spot on the Bluegrass Today’s Top 20 Song chart a few months ago. Casey’s first album for Mountain Fever is forthcoming.

Casey is a former founding member of the Americana duo Lee Street Lyrical. Now dissolved, the band was signed to MFM’s Travianna Records and was a repeat ACMA nominee for Acoustic Act of the Year. The LSL release, “I’ll Never Be A Mountain Girl,” written by Penn and Irene Kelley, reached #8 on Bluegrass Today’s Weekly Grassicana chart.
Past Albums
With co-writer Rodger King, Casey won an Arkansas-wide songwriting competition hosted by Infrared Studios. As a result, the two produced and released a Spring/Summer 2016 LP, KINGPENN. Bluegrass Unlimited reviewer Bill Conger wrote of the album, “One of the greatest joys in reviewing CDs is the discovery of new music … Penn’s cut-to-the-soul vocals are featured in several of the songs … My favorite is the opening cut, ‘Oceans (I Have Cried),’ which won an honorable mention in the 2016 Hazel Dickens Bluegrass Songwriting Competition.”
