Casey Jones Comment On LP

Posted in Bands on October 20, 2010

Official press release:

Straight edge punk-hardcore band Casey Jones (featuring Josh James of Evergreen Terrace) are set to self-release their final album, "I Hope We're Not the Last," on January 11, 2011. The album will be available through iTunes, all major online music sites, select mom-and-pop stores and at all live shows. 2011 also marks the band's final year of touring.

"When we started this band, we didn't expect to release records, much less to gain fans across the world. We certainly didn't expect so many people to be moved by our message," said frontman Josh James. "Because this band has never been first priority to its members, it has always equated to pure expression and pure fun."

"All things must come to an end, and we believe 2011 will be a great year to spend on tour and saying goodbye. This is going to be fun," James said.
