Catching Up With Casey James: The Reality Rocks Interview

By | Reality Rocks – Fri, Feb 15, 2013 8:46 PM EST

Casey James has become one of the biggest success stories from "American Idol's" otherwise troubled ninth season, signing to Sony Nashville; touring across the nation with the likes of Sugarland; and being embraced by the Nashville community, just like fellow non-winner country Idols Kellie Pickler, Bucky Covington, and Josh Gracin. Last year, the guitar-shredding Texas rocker released his self-titled debut album, and he has been touring nonstop pretty much ever since. So when Casey's never-ending road travels took him through Los Angeles recently, naturally he stopped by Yahoo! Music headquarters to fill Reality Rocks in on what he's been up to, how far he's come since he competed on "Idol" three years ago, and what's in store for him in 2013.

And check out these cool performances Casey did for Yahoo! Music's Ram Country back in 2012, to tide you over while you're waiting for new Casey James jams!
