CASEY – HOW TO DISAPPEAR BIO (’25 - SHORT)

At the end of 2022, Casey broke their self-imposed exile from the music industry and returned with two stunning new songs. It had been about four years since the Welsh five-piece had called it a day, but ‘Great Grief’ and ‘Atone’ showed that none of their passion or intensity had been diluted. They offered a reintroduction to Casey, and the response to them was, predictably, overwhelmingly positive.

And so, just about a year after the band’s reunion, Casey released their third full-length album, aptly titled How To Disappear, in January ‘24. It’s a record that many people – members of the band included – never thought would ever get made. And while its 12 phenomenal songs certainly match the incredibly high standards of the band’s back catalogue, this is also Casey Mark II, a band solidified by their many previous years of close friendship, and buoyed by once more doing what they love together.

The result is the band’s most accomplished album to date – one that thrives on the chemistry that was present between the five members even when they formed in 2014. As ever, these Casey songs don’t just replicate the feelings that inspired them, they embody them. They become them. They’re not about those emotions, they are those emotions, brought to life by the precision crafting of the band.

At the heart of the record is vocalist Tom Weaver’s lyrics. While previously he’s been incredibly candid with his lyrics, drawing from intensely personal experiences about both his life and his ill health, on this album he wrestles with something more abstract and intangible – the notion of absence. While death is an ominous presence on this record, it’s not morbid in the slightest. Rather, the intention was to transform the default emotions we feel about death from sadness into something more positive and hopeful.

In January of ‘24 Casey celebrated the release of How To Disappear while travelling across America on tour with Holding Absence, embracing the band’s unequivocal return to the fore. Weaver’s health, however, took an unexpected decline while on tour, leading to urgent hospitalisation and having to miss several of the shows. Following further tests once home, it was clear Weaver required serious medical attention, leading to the cancellation of all further touring for the year as he underwent heart surgery, and the much needed period of rest that followed.

Two year’s on from it’s release, therefore – and with Weaver back to full health - Casey return in Spring ’26 to finally take third album How To Disappear on the road across England and Europe. Discussing the excitement and anticipation to finally celebrate the release on the road, Weaver comments:

A large part of How to Disappear is spent wrestling with the question of what comes after. Little did I know that a month after releasing it, I’d come almost face to face with that question.

Hard to believe it’s been almost two years since the record came out, and we’ve never really had the chance to celebrate it. It’s been a difficult few years, much longer than we’d intended to take away from performing so soon after returning to making music again.

But 2026 is a special year for Casey. It marks 10 years of Love Is Not Enough; the album that made all of this possible for us. And before we celebrate that, we want to make sure How To Disappear has its flowers.

Next March and April, we’ll be playing shows across England and Europe in celebration of our third full length record, How To Disappear. We’ll be bringing along Mirrortalk for the UK shows, and some other friends that we’ll announce at a later date.

Sorry for being away for so long, thank you all so much for your patience, can’t wait to see you all again in the New Year.”
