Memories, present day and looking into the future, are all included in the love story of “Believers”, the opening track on To the Places We Lived, the recent release from Kasey Anderson. Expanding on the shared beliefs of two people, Kasey Anderson songs spring from the pen of a true believer. Whether the music sways, as in the echo-dappled dreamlike march of “The Lost Parade”, or the Rock’n’Roll spit and snarl of “Paint It Gold”, the words and music of To the Places We Lived are a light in the darkness. Characters that live on the edge, desperation and determination ride-sharing across the emotions that course like blood through the stories. Beginning a musical path with his 2004 release, Dead Roses, Kasey Anderson has been dedicated to making music that matters, both in his own life and as a gift to a worldwide community. To the Places We Lived closes the door on twenty years of making music for Kasey Anderson, and it will be his final release. Of the reasoning, and process, Kasey shared ‘I wrote To the Places We Lived to be my last record. I thought a lot about Nowhere Nights while we were making To the Places We Lived because this record picks up where Nowhere Nights left off; a sort of spiritual sequel, I suppose. One of the privileges of being a writer is I get to decide how and when any given story ends. I’m glad I hung around long enough to finish this one’.
 
The guitar snarls like the spite in “Ain’t Going Back to Nashville” as admissions become advice for “Leave an Echo”, and the tale of “Ellensburg” drifts in mist-like sonics. The powerful backbeat supports the family traditions handed down in “Readynow” while “Start Again” walks with confident strides over a highway song for the soul. Kasey Anderson exits To the Places We Lived on the title track, its story moves from summer New York City to the west coast, the heat of the groove mirroring the intense realities of its tale.
