Casey are currently on tour in the USA as support for Holding Absence. However, at the last few shows, only 3 members were on stage: lead singer Tom Weaver is currently unable to perform due to illness.
Currently, Casey are traveling in North America as part of Holding Absence's The Noble Art Of Self Destruction Tour. This gives them the opportunity to perform songs from their brand new album How To Disappear live for the first time! After all, the album was just released on January 12, 2024. The recent shows took place in Denver, Colorado, Lawrence, Kansas, and Dallas, Texas. However, only three members were on stage with their instruments instead of five.
Tom Weaver's Hospital Stay
A few days ago, Casey announced online that Tom Weaver would not be able to join them for the upcoming concert dates. He had to seek treatment at the hospital and has been there since. His bandmates are doing well and are supporting him in his recovery while continuing to perform at the upcoming shows. Since guitarist Liam Torrance will join them at the concert in Tampa, Florida on February 2nd, the guys will be performing as a trio for now. Toby Evans will take over vocals until Tom is feeling better. All fans are encouraged to show their support by singing along!
The band's first update already provides some relief. Tom's condition has already improved and they hope to see him back on stage with them soon. The next show will take place today in San Antonio, Texas. We wish Tom a speedy recovery and hope for more positive updates on the situation in the coming days! A big thank you goes out to their fans for their support at the shows.
The setlist From Lawrence, Kansas
The tour colleagues also provided support. Jesse Hash from Holding Absence sang the last song on Casey's setlist: "Little Bird". Ashley Emery took over vocals in "Hell"! This allowed the show to go on despite everything and of course, there was still a great atmosphere in the audience.
