Biography

Sun-soaked South Florida’s best kept secret is finally receiving the national attention he deserves.

Previously signed to Epic/Sony Records and Ultra records, CASELY (born Jean Carlos Casely) is a young musical phenom who has shattered all expectations of what makes an R&B superstar. After attending Boston’s world-famous Berklee College of Music on full music scholarship, this classically trained pianist is a singing/acting/dancing/songwriting quadruple threat who embodies what it means to be a child of the 80s. His influences range from Prince and Michael Jackson to Death Cab for Cutie and John Mayer, and it shows. Casely’s music is filled with unexpected twists, glittery synthesizers, sumptuous melodic layer-cakes, and straight-up dance tracks that move you in the club. He says. “I’m doing it all leftfield, pushing the envelope.”

If the best R&B is built around universal themes, like pulling the heartstrings that exist in all of us, then Casely plays us all like the pianist he is. Casely’s first single, “Emotional” (Epic/Sony) is the perfect example. “It’s about not being able to focus on anything but that one girl who just walked into the room.” And everything from Casely’s anxious, melodic vocals to the Mozart-style strings to the neck-breaking beat, delivers the message that Casely “never should have let her go.” The national radio airplay and widespread popularity of “Emotional” attracted the attention of fellow Miami superstar Flo-Rida on the remix.
