MUSIC - SINGLE # 2, "The Long Road"

“But do you want to walk away when you have so much more to say?” There are highs and there are lows throughout life. Wisdom is knowing even though you may not trust yourself, you know to trust the process. Continuing down the path, giving things time, giving it your all especially when things are hard – that’s “The Long Road.”

MUSIC - SINGLE # 1, "Never Want To Say"

“Never Want To Say” explores that moment in a relationship when someone is brave enough to say this is me, this is my true self, with the intention of bringing the other person closer, even while knowing there is a risk they may leave. Relationships are messy and imperfect, yet there is profound beauty in choosing to stay, to go deeper, and to fight for what feels true within you.

Long bio:

Casey Lipka, a Los Angeles–based bassist, vocalist, and composer, creates a genre-expansive sound and brings a collaborative spirit to her work. She has toured nationally and internationally both with bands she has founded as well as the acclaimed rock band CAKE. She’s equally at home whether she’s performing house concerts or on stages like NPR’s Mountain Stage.

Casey’s love of music can be traced back to her childhood discovering “The Sound of Music” and “West Side Story.” Her mom also fondly recalls that “there was never a time Casey wasn’t singing.” The key to unlocking Casey’s musical identity – connection. Casey’s artistry has been shaped by building bands, creating collective projects, and centering music as a practice of dialogue, community, and shared storytelling.

With multiple solo projects to her name – including her debut album “Show Up” and a forthcoming second release, “Giving It Time” in Spring of 2026 – Lipka’s work spans composing for ballet and museum installations to leading large-scale Motown tributes and community-centered music initiatives. Casey received an Innovation Grant to create a collaborative music series highlighting the lived experiences of women musicians, a Play-In ACMP Grant hosting a gathering that centered women and nonbinary double bassists in Los Angeles, and a Professional Development Grant supporting her continued growth as a creative leader.

COLLABORATIONS

Casey Lipka started a music initiative that gives women musicians the opportunity to collaborate, connect and share their stories. This project centers marginalized voices – women, BIPOC women, and disabled women. Each collaboration documents a live music performance and a conversation that highlights the lived experience of each musician. The series started in January 2026 and highlights a new musician every two weeks.
