ABOUT US:
The Casey Smith Project are a soulful indie-rock group based in Fairbanks, Alaska. Originally formed in 2016, CSP’s love of tape delay and modulated synthesizers has remained constant throughout their exploration of different sounds and styles–melodic compositions that are both dreamy and danceable while laboriously combining lo-fi indie grooves with classic pop.
"Music, for me, is like an outlet to be creative and be whatever I want to be– just choose whatever direction I want to go with whatever I'm listening to or whatever I want to explore, and that changes obviously with people that I'm writing with or playing with.”
-Excerpt, Interview with the UAF Sunstar
"A timeless-sounding, soulful appeal lingers on “In and Out of View,” an enthralling new soul-pop single from the Casey Smith Project. Prepare for an emotively throwback listening experience, propelled by smoothly entrancing vocal layers and flourishing production. The trio from Fairbanks, Alaska originally formed in 2016, and fully invigorate with this retro-loving cut.”
"Their sound is full of intricate guitar looping, soulful vocal melodies and rhythmic drum beats."
Red Lights and Whiskey is the sophomore album, by the Casey Smith Project. These songs were written and recorded over a year and a half period during the pandemic at Wattage Studios in Anchorage, Alaska.
"The Casey Smith Project is his band, and the moniker is fitting for an enterprise centered around Smith’s original compositions, built with collaboration from an assemblage of musicians who are encouraged to add their own ideas to his songs.”
“hypnotic blend of neo-psychedelia, soul and modern alternative rock”
-Excerpt, Fairbanks News Miner
“Red Carpet, an emotionally driven single that hinges on lyrical passion and inventive instrumentation.”
