Josh Taerk – Casie

• 9th Dec 2013

Casie is the first UK single from Canadian singer songwriter Josh Taerk. The 22 year old from Toronto takes his rock influences and creates melodic and gentle tales, lyrical songs in the true story telling tradition. His acoustic songs and constant touring have gained him considerable attention, and he can count Max Weinberg, long time drummer with Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band amongst his fans.

Casie is a love song, a tale of young love that just doesn’t work out. Taerk’s melodic vocals are soft yet passionate and the emotion is clear in his delivery. The chorus soars with yearning for his lost love in fine style. The overall effect is gentle yet there is no doubting the intensity behind the lyrics.

Josh Taerk is clearly a talented young man with a big future.
