Casey Jones of Jacksonville Florida play fast and fun straight edge hardcore in the vein of Stretch Armstrong, Bane, and Good Riddance. The band features members of Evergreen Terrace and xTimetoDiex. Their debut full length "The Few, The Proud, The Crucial" is now available through Indianola Records.
Fed up with the lack of true Straight Edge pride bands, Casey Jones formed in early 2003. With songs straight from the heart, and sometimes with a dose of humor, CXJ prides themselves on being a band that has no problem letting the rest of the world know how they have chosen to live their lives.
Casey Jones was originally started as a side project by current and ex-members of Evergreen Terrace. Now CXJ have now separated themselves from the term side project by stepping up the pace, playing as many shows as possible, and doing their own tours. Casey Jones have been seen on tour with such bands as Kids Like Us, Evergreen Terrace, Until The End, Caliban, Scars of Tomorrow, and many more.
The shows are fierce, and when you catch them live you will witness a performance filled with passion and energy. Pile-ons and sing-a-longs will be a definite. Straight Edge will be alive as long as Casey Jones has anything to do with it.
