RE: I'm Casey and I just got signed.
Inland Empire Weekly interview:
Quote:As far as joining the competition, Abrams admits, “There was some cattiness and I did not trust a lot of people during the show, but all of that cleared up as soon as we all went on tour. I still hang out with all the contestants all the time—Haley [Reinhart], Jacob [Lusk], all of them. Stefano [Langone] and I are two completely different personalities, but it is actually really fun to hang out with him.”
Though he didn’t claim the gold, the singer recently released his self-titled debut with Concord Music Group, the music company Paul McCartney calls home. To promote the album, Concord released two radio singles, “Simple Life” and “Get Out,” to highlight the singer’s range.
“We are trying to show two different sides,” explains Abrams. “‘Simple Life’ is about putting down technology for a second and exploring the real world, while ‘Get Out’ is a heartbreak song. A chick dumps you, you cannot stop thinking about her 24/7, and she couldn’t give a shit. Excuse my language, but that is the only word that fits there.”
Abrams performed masterful covers on Idol, but the eponymous disc features just one, Ray Charles’ “Hit the Road Jack.” Fans of the show will appreciate it because the song pairs Abrams with his frequent Idol collaborator, Haley Reinhart.
“I have known that song my whole life, as long as I can remember,” says Abrams. “I thought, ‘Why not get a chick to sing on it?’”
...“You have to go with what your gut tells you,” he says of the album. “We tried to put catchy melodies over music that a jazz musician would play. I think that is interesting for a person who does not necessary like pop but who does like cool changes and catchy melodies. It is basically a vibe thing.”
