The debut single from Season 9 Idol, Casey James, is now available for download! You can get, “Let’s Don’t Call it A Night” from both iTunes and Amazon.

Casey co-wrote “Let’s Don’t Call it a Night” with Brice Long and Terry McBride.

UPDATE: Sony press release announcing the single.

NASHVILLE, TN – 19 Recordings/BNA Records’ Casey James will release his debut single “Let’s Don’t Call It A Night” tomorrow, August 16 at all digital providers. The Cool, TX native wrote the soulful song with Brice Long (Co-writer of Gary Allan’s Number One hit “Nothing On But the Radio”) and Terry McBride (Co-writer of Brooks & Dunn hits such as “Play Something Country” and “Cowgirls Don’t Cry”).

“When we were writing ‘Let’s Don’t Call It A Night,’ it really began with this sound we had on the guitar, and one of us said, ‘That just feels sexy,’ and it was funny how quickly the song came together around that sound and the whole idea of a great night that you don’t want to end,” James recalls.

James, who finished third on American Idol’s 9th season last year, is currently working on his debut album.

    I’m really impressed. I’m a music fan first and foremost, and although I am more pop/rock at the moment, I certainly enjoy some country. I definitely enjoy Casey James doing country! I downloaded it right away and have been listening off and on all day. He has a very distinctive voice and style, and I think this song will give non-Idol folks a good idea of what he and his music are all about. Fingers crossed that it’s a hit!

    I cant believe this day is finally here. Its been a long time coming. This guy has so much untapped talent it is going to be fun to see where his career is in a few years.

    If you’re not hummin’ the melody after 2-3 listens you’re likely tone-deaf.

    I wish him well for his own sake and his fans, and as a rockin’ third placer :)

    But I guess I fail, lol. I did listen to this a few times yesterday, and just really can’t get into this song, especially in the recorded version. It’s fine, but not all that memorable or unique for me. (I liked his speeded-up recent live version the best of the versions I’ve heard.)

    I don’t recall having become tone-deaf but will have to look into it :shock:

    Nice interview of Casey. I wonder when it was taped? Anyone know? I’m sure he’s heard his single on radio by now. It must be quite a rush to hear yourself on country radio for the first time!

    Loved the GAC interview. Downloaded my copy of Lets Don’t Call it a Night from iTunes.

    I was listening real close to the songs being sung on the CMA Fest Sunday night and Casey’s song fits so perfect into that whole range of performances. Was thinking he’d look so good up there on that stage that night. Sigh …. maybe next year.

    it’s finally coming together for him and i am PSYCHED OUTTA MY MIND. while it is not my fave of all the songs he has co-written, i think it is still a decent choice and i wish him the best. he may not be making a huge splash on the country music scene but he will most definitely find a place and he is here to stay. as Casey would say, “close enough”.

    Yeah, I prefer long solid musical career for Casey than being a superstar flash-in-a-pan. I’ve seen more realistic Casey fans than OTT ones, but of course we all wish him (very very) well.

    That GAC interview is adorable. At 0:12, the host can’t let go of his hand no? lol
