His crystalline voice and funky, easygoing beats earned Cas a second-place finish on America’s Got Talent, which in turn netted him a measure of fame and a following. But the contest also locked the Texan singer/songwriter/guitarist into a major label deal that didn’t feel right. So, not wanting to be turned into a manufactured product, he struck out on his own. The superb result: Connection, a collection of songs basking in the philosophical and musical maturity that comes from staying true to his artistic vision.

Josh Heinrichs founded Jah Roots in 2001, along with four musician-friends from his hometown of Springfield, MO. Over the following eight years, they released five studio albums and toured extensively throughout the USA. During this time, Heinrichs wrote a number of songs that eventually gained fantastically large on-line notoriety, and were downloaded en masse all over the world. The band’s success was recognized in the official media outlets of such locales as Guam, Hawaii and New Zealand. However, after years playing to overflowing crowds at outdoor festivals and packed mid-sized venues, the toll of non-stop touring began to take a personal toll, and Heinirchs decided to step away from the band he had taken so far, in order to devote more time to his wife and children.

The Fellows are a group of chaps from the old school, they went to school together, a good school. Whilst at school there was a younger pupil (the silver gnome) who they mistreated for being silver. After school they lost touch and went about their lives, all excelling in their various fields. Life on Earth during this time became tense, people grew weary and began abusing one another. As a result search parties were sent out across the universe for a better life, at the very same time it so happened The Visfincta were doing that very same thing. What ensued then was a galactic tug of war and help was sent for.
