Description
Casey Neill & The Norway Rats
Sending Up Flares, the fourth record from Casey Neill & The Norway Rats, is the sound of a band rallying together, turning the genre-bending range of its influences into the group’s most cohesive, cathartic album yet. Created amidst chaos and uncertainty, these songs offer a lifeline to a world in need
of balance, shot through with stories about resolve, resilience, wonder, and positive human interaction.
The music of Casey Neill & The Norway Rats combines dreamy ballads and high energy rave-ups built around narrative songwriting. Neill tours with the band and solo throughout the USA, Japan, and Europe having performed at venues such as Town Hall in New York, Bumbershoot, and the Newport Folk Festival. The ensemble of Pacific Northwest heavy hitters includes
accordionist/keyboardist Jenny Conlee of the Decemberists, bassist Jesse Emerson of Amelia, and Neill (who is also a member of The Minus 5). Sending Up Flares follows 2018’s Subterrene which No Depression called "a milestone in Neill and company’s trajectory thus far" while Rolling Stone said "(Neill's) songs mask their complexities beneath a simple, singalong-worthy surface... these swimming waters have serious depth."
