“I don’t know anyone else who sounds anything like this,” - Salisbury Post
It’s an interesting combination. There's a little Elton John piano-pop spliced with the occasional rock guitar, dance beats, and a dark theatrical twist in the rock opera-vein of “Hedwig.” - Sound Bites-- Courtney Devores

Bio
Once upon a time, a young boy bound by the ever-growing restraint of society, found himself broken and searching for truth. Finding himself alone and unable to live up to those standards set by the world, he found a simple spark; music. From the moment he sat down at the piano, he felt the warmth and inspiration that only ivory keys could bring. For once in his life, he felt solace. This musical gift had broken the chains that kept him tied and allowed him to understand his strange affinity for the melancholy and macabre that had plagued his inner machinations. He voraciously devoured all music he could find, becoming trained in classical and popular music styles. Through the music, he found himself anew and born again. This reincarnation of a once frail individual would come to be known as Caleb de Casper. As this new soul developed, a fascination with glamour enveloped his existence. The darkness that had made him could be made less powerful if it were made beautiful. Beauty can tame the beast. Seeking all that shined, sparkled, and shimmered, his fascination became an obsession. Knowing what it did for his being, he decided to share music with the masses. He aims to wipe out inequality through existence, find beauty in the darkness, and tempt the demon inside everyone.
Caleb de Casper is an artist, and has even been known to describe himself as a piece of living art. In the name of art, De Casper has even gone so far as to have eaten a raw bovine heart onstage at the NC Music Factory. He lives music, and breathes life into ideas that were given to him through his tumultuous life. His career began when he started playing the clubs of Charlotte with his Foxy Jailvixens to sparse crowds. Today, his stage includes packed festivals and venues in the Charlotte and New York market. Caleb de Casper recently released an EP entitled, FANGORIOUS, which he proclaims as, “the story of a beast transforming from dark to light”. It has been played on 106.5 THE END and PMCRadio. He hopes to use his talent as a classically trained pianist and accomplished songwriter to express his views on what would make a better world. The rock opera style of his concerts captures the essence of ‘glamour horror’ flawlessly, and connects with the individual on a truly meaningful and deep level. This is where it all begins and nothing will stop him…
