For this month’s Studio Live, Casey Callison will share his music and songwriting. For this episode of SoundCheck, Callison reflects on what it means to him to be a songwriter and how his influences come from his surroundings.

Catch Studio Live at noon on Friday, January 13, 2023 here on KSMU. Then join Casey Callison for an in-person concert at our new Studio Live Social Hour location – Mother’s Brewing Company – from 6-8 pm that same night.

She and her husband Todd live with their two cats, Ellie and Jean-Ralphio, and way too many house plants.
