Casey Neill is a Portland, Oregon-based singer-songwriter who takes his cues from the political protest-oriented modern-day punk-folk of Billy Bragg, as well as Celtic music and poetic singer/songwriters like Bob Dylan. Neill was raised on the East Coast but moved to Olympia, WA to attend Evergreen State University, where he became interested in environmentalism and protest music. Neill recorded an eponymous debut album for the Appleseed label in 1998, and subsequently formed the Casey Neill Trio with fiddler Anthea Lawrence and multi-instrumentalist Zak Borden (mandolin, mandola, bodhran, harmonica). This group issued the album Skree in 1999; Portland West followed two years later. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
