Season 9 finalist and 19 Recordings/Columbia Records artist Casey James is releasing his new single “Crying On A Suitcase” to radio. This is the follow-up to his Top 20 debut single, “Let’s Don’t Call It A Night” from his self-titled debut album.

“I’m excited that ‘Crying On A Suitcase’ is my new single,” shares Casey. “This song is so intense and emotional. The idea of someone right on the verge of losing their loved one, and doing everything to keep it from happening. Who hasn’t been there?”
