Featuring Caswell Lee Orr

From the heart of Austin, Caswell Lee Orr blends Laurel Canyon warmth with the raw soul of the Texas Hill Country. It's rock and roll, but heavier on the roll.

His 2024 debut EP Feelin’ Fine traces a sonic journal from a sun-drenched season out West filled with love, loss, and unraveling truths. Now, with a band of Austin’s finest behind him, he’s set to release The Trail in fall 2025.

Using Public Transportation?

The Downtown Garland Station is served by the Northeast segment of the DART Rail Blue Line. Downtown Garland Station patrons can set their watches by the huge clock tower in a setting where details suggest an old-fashioned train depot, with easy access to Garland's major civic centers and Performing Arts Center, linked by a crosswalk to the Garland Central Transit Center.
