He most certainly does! I can't decide whether he should focus on one genre (jazz, for example, since that's what I want to hear him do) or just keep using that extraordinary talent of his in whatever way he chooses. Obviously, the latter is probably best for him, since he seems to be able to do anything with said talent.
I'm so glad that he and Haley were on the same season of AI and musically bonded to the degree that they did. I'm hopeful that "Moanin'" and BICO are only the beginning of what we'll hear these two give us.

Damn, I'm blown away! They killed it! I'm impressed with Casey more than ever. Would love to see him and Haley rocking it out with some of that killer throwback rockin roll. No wonder they hit it off, they both have very similar taste in music.
That drummer and lead guitarist were killer too. As a matter of fact, that lead guitarist bares a very similar resemblance to the lead guitarist on last season's AI. Couldn't tell if it was the same guy because of the shades and cap, but he nevertheless carried a close resemblance to that guy anyway.

Ah yes, it all makes sense...
Good eye. That is Tony Pulizzi, guitarist on AI.![[Image: 380453_307780895912734_196865843670907_1...7464_n.jpg]](http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/380453_307780895912734_196865843670907_1103228_2143347464_n.jpg)
"Proficient in many musical styles, Pulizzi creates a mash of jazz harmonies and freedoms within the realms of rock roots with his guitar propelled songs. While his songs are both vocal and instrumental, he plans a show that features all the players whether it is a trio sized group or an 8-piece band. You are going to see individuals brought to the top of their game." http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/musician.php?id=16392
By the way this is the picture featured on his main FB page:

John, this is great information. Didn't want to repost the entire post but I think this shows that Haley & Casey are well respected in the inner circles of the music industry.
