Netflix binge:
The last series I watched was about a young teenager with autism and his family. It’s called Atypical and the teacher in me LOVES it!

Your interests apart from music:
I love anything in nature, reading and a continuous search for great vegan food.

First musical purchase:
It would be great to say I bought a hymnal or something, but I’m almost positive my first music purchase was a CD from a rapper with some questionable lyrics. LOL. I successfully hid it from my mom for at least two years. My music tastes have definitely changed since then.

Why you should pay attention:
Casey J was an elementary school teacher as recently as a few years ago, but her decision to obey the impulse to pursue music full-time was rewarded with a Stellar Award for New Artist of the Year in 2016 on the strength of her debut, The Truth. An exciting new partnership between Tyscot Records and Integrity Music is set to bring Casey J’s music to a broader audience in 2019 with a brand new album, The Gathering.

Start here:
The firstfruits of Casey J’s new album are powerful refrains that center the listener on what is most important. We’re excited to hear much more from this anointed worship leader. Check out the beautiful live setting and lovely vocal performance on “The Gathering.”
