Jeremy Casella

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jeremy Russell Casella (b. April, 6 1976) is a nationally touring singer/songwriter & recording artist. He has released four independent albums in his eight year career and has toured alongside such musical acts as Caedmon's Call and Phil Keaggy. In the summer of 2004, Casella signed a record contract with Universal South/Eb+Flo Records. During his time as a signed artist, Casella recorded The Innocence Fires which featured 11 original songs and a collaboration with The Blind Boys of Alabama.

The album was produced by grammy-winning producer Monroe Jones but was subsequently shelved after its completion due to Universal South's financial woes at the time. Casella went back to being an independent artist and has remained so ever since.

In the fall of 2004, Casella formed Saint & Pilgrim - an indie label based out of Nashville, Tennessee.
