Casey

There are multiple artists with the name "Casey":

1) Casey is a Welsh melodic hardcore band formed in South Wales, United Kingdom in 2014. The band formed shortly after vocalist Tom Weaver and guitarist Liam Torrance left previous projects, Continents and Hot Damn respectively.

Originally formed as a studio band under the name Well Wisher, Weaver and Torrance later recruited Toby Evans, Max Nicolai, and Scott Edwards, and began producing material with the intention of performing live. After a brief hiatus while Weaver auditioned to join the band Northlane, the name Well Wisher was dropped, and the band relaunched under the name Casey. The name is derived from both Weaver's love of the album Casey by The Rise of Science, and also Torrance's tribute to the late Hawthorne Heights guitarist, Casey Calvert.

On December 1st, 2018, the band released a statement explaining that they have decided to disband following a final UK/European tour and a one-off headline show in the US in 2019. Casey's music has been described as "packed to the rafters with emotionally charged guitar lines and captivating, heartfelt lyrics" and "mix of rhythmic atmosphere, spoken word, hardcore guitar and more into the tracks guaranteed to move you and tell you a vivid story.", leading to them being categorized as post-hardcore, melodic hardcore, hardcore punk, emotional hardcore, shoegaze and alternative rock.

In the years following Casey's disbandment, Smith formed the bands Asidhara and Mourn, which was with members of Continents and Wilderness, and released their debut single on August 5, 2021, while Nicolai and Torrance formed Exit Dream alongside vocalist Wesley Thompson, formerly of Napoleon and Climates, and session musician Rob Hawkins.

On December 1, 2022, the band announced that they had reformed and that they had booked five tour date in the United Kingdom and mainland Europe between January 12 and 20, 2023. After every one of the dates sold out, they announced on December 11 that had booked additional dates in London and Oberhausen and upgraded the date in Manchester. In a January 2023 interview with Clash magazine, Weaver explained the reunion came about when Torrence contacted him about reforming only days after his split from his fiancée, which Torrence was unaware of. In the following weeks, the band's final lineup then began to meet one another, and soon writing again. On December 6, 2022, they released the single "Great Grief", the first song written as a band following their reunion, which was followed on January 3, 2023, by the single "Atone".

Forward to September 15, 2023, they released the single "Puncture Wounds To Heaven", and announced it would be a part of their upcoming third studio album.
