CASEY DONAHEW TEASES NEW ALBUM COMING SOON ON SOCIALS
Casey Donahew dropped another song on streaming today called “When She Kissed Me” and teased the release date of 9/27/24 of his new album featuring 17 songs. The tease on Casey’s socials just had a picture of song titles with no album name and the release date. Maybe fans will get to name it?
Casey’s current radio single “Hungover Again” is in the top 20 on the Texas radio charts and is a follow up to his two chart topping songs “Oklahoma” and “Running Out of Time” in 2024.
Something that we haven’t noticed before from Donahew, is that he is releasing new streaming songs approximately every two weeks. He released “Luckiest Guy I Know” and “Whiskey Talkin’” feat. Kylie Frey in July and “When She Kissed Me” today.
The track “Whiskey Talkin’” features a collaboration with Kylie Frey. She joked on socials that she and Casey released a song about whiskey while she was pregnant. The song beautifully captures the essence of late-night reflections. Its lyrics tell a story of rekindling old feelings and crossing blurred lines. It’s a perfect blend of heartfelt storytelling and catchy melodies that fans have come to expect from Casey Donahew.
Donahew also teamed up with friends Pat Green, Randy Rogers, and Wade Bowen on “Running Out of Time” that tells the story of the adventures of these legends in the music world which probably stemmed from their long-time friendship and the fact that all three of these friends play Casey’s Boots on the Beach music festival in Mexico each year. The festival has been expanded from one to three weeks and will celebrate its 8th anniversary in 2025. The dates are June 15-19, July 6-10, and July 27-31, 2025.
