About Me

Charles P. Hurowitz (a.k.a. Casey), a non-performing songwriter, is fast gaining recognition in the music world with a string of successes under his belt. He has a special skill for unique and expressive lyrics and memorable hooks. Quote from a review by Tonos co-founder and famed producer, David Foster on the song What a World:"You really understand songwriting. Good build, good hook and very well structured. I found myself singing the hook two hours after listening which is a very good thing. Go beat the door down, youve got talent"Since 2001, Casey has been working with LA producer Dan Marfisi (POE, Harry Dean Stanton, Mindi Abair). Dan produced many successful tracks for Casey including Adrenaline, What a World, Marry Me, and Painfully Single.
