DARREN HAYES TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘CASEY’
Category: Music

'A song about escaping' is how Hayes describes the epic strings meets vintage synth single 'Casey' – the latest single to be lifted from his double album 'This Delicate Thing We've Made'.
A favourite of both fans and critics alike (it was Entertainment Weekly's download recommendation when released in the U.S late 2007) many have singled this track out as the centerpiece of Hayes' new sound.

"Casey, when you go, can you come and find me. I want to be beside you when you leave this town" Hayes croons earnestly atop the Kate Bush influenced string section and 1980's Fairlight drums.

"It's the story of a boy from a small town and a poor upbringing who wants to grow up and be something one day. He turns to the car radio and the freedom of a first car as a means of getting away.'

Much has been made of Hayes' admissions of growing up with domestic violence and many speculate the song is about his Sister who took care of him as a child. But Hayes says the influence is wider than that.

"It's about my sister in some sense, sure. But it's also about how I felt as a teenager, growing up different. And yet surviving against the odds. It also describes the sad realization that in a small town sooner or later everyone you love eventually moves away. In this song I'm the one left behind."

The single release is supported by a state of the art animated and live action music video by film maker Damian Hale of onedotzero fame. The piece involves hand drawn artwork and green screen technology that was 4 months in the making.

As the 4th single release from 'This Delicate Thing We've Made' Casey will feature a host of bonus tracks including brand new songs and never before released demos as well as a special treat for UK audiences. Each night of the 'Side 2 Tour' those in Britain will be able to purchase a digital version of the song as performed live each night.

'Casey' is released on March 3rd worldwide via iTunes and www.darrenhayes.com
