CASEY CHESNUTT will be performing in the Tasting Room from 2 to 5 PM. This guy is the real deal and you don't want to miss his show. NO COVER CHARGE!

Casey, born into a musical and artistic family, was greatly influenced by the musical style of his father, Mark Chesnutt. He began playing guitar and writing his own material at age 13. By his sophomore year, Casey was performing live 3 to 5 nights a week. Upon graduating high school in 2015, Casey enlisted in the United States Marines. After completing his 5-year enlistment with several overseas deployments, Casey returned to Southeast Texas in early June 2020 and has resumed a full-time musical career.

Performing a wide repertoire of red dirt, classic country (his favorite) and a little rock & roll, Casey enjoys performing at restaurants, taverns, festivals, and private events. Soulful, whiskey-throated vocals with the simplicity of an acoustic guitar is Casey’s true love and forte’.

Casey Chesnutt's new single, "Even Texas Couldn't Hold Her" has been added to over 100 Texas radio stations. See the music video here - fb.watch/59IjJpZ_7R .
