The track was released on May 1, and is available to stream through\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/7b7Z2zx8EXYEsxGQIyUhAt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Spotify<\/a>.<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Curtis showcases his mellow tones throughout the track, giving it that easy to listen to vibe. The perfect song to calm your mind and listen to through a relaxation period&#8230;although it might also pull on a few heartstrings! Roy Orbinson&#8217;s work can truly make you appreciate the art form that is music and this is something that Curtis admires greatly. He says;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Roy Orbison could make you feel things with his songs and to me, that&#8217;s the mark of great art. With a song like Crying it was hard for me to hear it and not be taken in by the sheer integrity of the piece.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s clear to see that Curtis wants to make his listeners connect with the piece just as Roy Orbison has done so successfully. &#8220;Crying&#8221; has certainly made an impression on the singer and now, he wants everyone else to experience this &#8211; which he has done so beautifully.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So who is Curtis Casey? He was the former frontman of the hard rock group &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.vaydenmusic.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vayden<\/a>&#8216; and is now focusing more on his solo material. We will certainly look forward to seeing what else he has up his sleeve.
