On this episode, I sit down with Cas Haley. Cas is a husband, father, singer/songwriter with 6 albums out. Cas and his reggae-inflicted music first appeared to a national audience on Season 2 of America's Got Talent in 2007, where he came in 2nd place. Nominated as best reggae rock entertainer in 2013 for the International Reggae and World Music Awards. In 2020 Cas was the grand prize winner of Lincoln Motor Company’s ‘Chart Your Course’ contest with his winning song ‘Every Road I’m On’, which is on his latest album ‘All the Right People’. Cas is, in my opinion, one of the 'good guys', with a beautiful soul and a talent that has had a positive impact on others throughout the world.
