Casey Bates is a music producer in Seattle, Washington. He has worked with several notable Seattle bands, including Gatsbys American Dream and Forgive Durden.

Background



Casey grew up on the mean streets of Oak Harbor, WA. Elderberry Lane was the wrong side of the tracks, and no one would let him forget it. Casey, alongside his childhood friend Andrew, found the strength to rise above their humble beginnings. At 16, he produced his first tracks for the Klobbs. Following rave reviews, mostly from those recored on the tracks, the spark to produce began. Notable hits were released over the coming years including the rock ballad "Don't Go Away Girl" and the experimental "Birthday Song".

Casey credits his major influences to the Tracer, Gino's $1 pizzas, and those nose inhaler things.
