Tassany

Tassany is the combined talents of Tracey Hudson-Brown and Cas Countz. Both are fairly new to the industry, but their love of music is woven into every fabric of their being. Tracey, the sultry voiced lead singer and main lyric writer of the duo, spent many days of her youth singing to the albums of her older sisters. Her lyric style is linked to many of the female singer/songwriters of the 70's, especally Carole King and Joni Mitchell. She began her musical career with the solo CD "Butterfly" in 2000. Cas, is the man behind the melodies, keyboard, vocal harmonies, and occasional lyric writer comes from St. Louis, Missouri. He started playing the organ at the age of 8, switching to the piano at the age of 16 and never went back. He was influenced greatly by Elton John and The Beatles. His musical life changed however, as he started to be intranced with The Beach Boys, and more notably the songwriting skills of Brian Wilson. As adults, Tracey and Cas took career paths that led them from music, but it was never far from their hearts and minds. A chance meeting over the internet in August of 2003 led to a swapping of her CD, and a cheap demo that Cas made on a tape. Four short months later, Cas left most of his family and his previous career to move to Nashville to work with Tracey and Tassany (a combination of their two names), was born. Almost two and half years later, their debut CD, "Home" was released in late Sept. 2006. "Home" is a very melodic, folk type CD, but along the way you will find elements of gospel, soul, and jazz along with their trademark ballads. What you will hear is a combination of two people as they share lessons learned in life flitered through what drives them, love, harmony, and music....
