TORREY CASEY & THE SOUTHSIDE HUSTLE — CAN’T KNOCK THE HUSTLE
By Michael Higgins
Originally from Crystal City, MO, Torrey and his band have played throughout the Festus and Jefferson County area. But it wasn’t until their jaw-dropping debut at the 2017 Big Muddy, that the river city really took notice. Casey and his Southside Hustle have hit the local music scene with force. In fact, many folks have been asking, “Who the heck are these guys?”
Learn just who they are, right here.
From Doug at Odds Lane – ‘We are thrilled to announce our new album is currently being mixed by Grammy Awards winning producer and all around musical genius David ‘Z’ Rivkin from Minneapolis and currently residing in Los Angeles. He is most well known for his long-standing work with Prince, but has also contributed to award winning albums by Etta James, Billy Idol, BoDeans, Buddy Guy and Neneh Cherry. We are excited to be once again be working with David and can’t wait to have the David Z magic touch on an album that was already filled with great performances captured by Mike Zito at MARZ Studio in Texas. Mike also will appear on several tracks of the album. More details to come on the eventual release date later this year.
Off to the International Blues Challenge this week, where Torrey Casey & the Southside Hustle and Kingdom Brothers duo will be the STL musical representatives at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis. Eugene Johnson won the Best Self-Produced CD for St. Louis and will be in contention at the IBC as well.
