Kasper's Chasing Another Sundown is such a beautiful varied collection of songs, it's almost impossible to describe them. They stylistically clip everything from ballad and bluegrass to crooning and folk, yet there is an idyllic sense of purity to each. Perfectly produced and as clear as a placid lake or crisp autumn morning, perhaps it shouldn't come as a surprise that his simplicity still warranted him a contest win with Ragged. "I'm really serious about making good music, and I don't get too wrapped up in my image or con- tests or huge web presence," Kasper says. "The music is all I really focus on. I keep things simple in terms of style, but go way deep when I'm writing and recording. I don't care about much else. I don't pursue any certain style of music either; I try to be as open to my abilities as I can be and let things come through." Though the formula appears fairly straightfor- ward, the results are simply gorgeous. .... -By Kendah el-ali, Ragged Magazine 8

"If I ventured in the slipstream
Between the viaducts of your dream
Where mobile steel rims crack
And the ditch in the back roads stop

Could you find me?
Would you kiss-a my eyes?
To lay me down in silence easy
To be born again"
