Casey Shea just finished up his monthlong Saturday residency at Rockwood Music Hall and is segueing right into a Friday night residency for the next two weeks. Come and watch the band get more and more rocking in preparation of recording one of their two new albums of 2010. The working title for this September release is “Utter Domination Vol. 1″, but we’re still focus-grouping that one. March will bring us the pre-cursor album “Love Is Here To Stay”.

We’re excited to announce that we’ve partnered with 100000Fans.com to release a special collection of Casey Shea songs! Go HERE to download the album for free! Write up below by Christina.

In January 2009, Shea combined forces with NY label Family Records, to introduce the public to a catalog of solo works. Not wanting to have one big record release show and then be done with it, Casey and his label questioned, “How can we put out this music in a unique way?” The answer: The “ABC’s Singles Release Shows”, a multitude of performances booked at different venues over the course of the year, each featuring two professional recordings and one informal demo made at home- the A side, B side, and C side.

The concept, another throwback to the past, quickly garnered a fantastically devoted audience following. “In Search Of Seas” was compiled especially for 100000Fans.com taking all the A and B sides, and adding a bonus track for your listening pleasure…
