Casey Neill & the Norway Rats fuse modern rock with punk, Americana, and Celtic styles. The Norway Rats are an assemblage of Portland’s finest musos whose shows alternate between desolate ballads and raucous rave-ups. With a raspy voice, well-crafted songs and a crack band, Casey Neill has carved out a widespread fanbase throughout the US, Canada, Japan, and Britain . A new Casey Neill CD “Brooklyn Bridge” was released May 1st 2007 on the indie label In Music We Trust.

Neill cut his teeth in the underground music community of the Pacific Northwest. Maintaining an international touring and recording career, his songs have garnered widespread praise from radio and critics, as well as musical luminaries Jello Biafra, Amy Ray, Pete Seeger, and Steve Earle. Casey has played stages such as New York’s Town Hall, San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall, and Glasgow’s Celtic Connections Festival.
