The music draws on his study of the classical guitar and modern jazz Lapis Trio’s unique instrumentation provides a rich, dynamic acoustic setting. In their new album, The Travelers, Casey imagines what he might write if his occupation was to perform a composition every evening for the rest of his community upon their return from work. Every piece would need to immediately engage the audience, by being unique and entertaining.
