About Me

Click here to request "Seventeen" by Casxio on Indie 103.1 in LA.

"The tunes are a fresh-as-heck and high-pitched nod to classic Prince and Talking Heads." - URB Magazine

"Los Angeles' Casxio has proven itself a little bit more than just the latest band to jump into the dance-music pool." - LA Times

"Singer / bassist Lucas Guerin is, in this humble blogger's estimation, one of the five best frontmen in Los Angeles."-Classical Geek Theatre

"It's not often a live band can whip up as healthy as dance floor (especially in Los Angeles) as they did at their Metromix showcase at Spaceland." - Metromix

"They always put on a great show" - Indie Schmarm

Hilton Carter's interpretation of "DANCE"
