Casey Jones is best known as the name of a straight edge hardcore punk band from Jacksonville, Florida, active between 2003 and 2012. The band was formed as a side project involving members from Evergreen Terrace and Anchors Away, including Josh James and his brother Caleb. They released three albums—*The Few, The Proud, The Crucial*, *The Messenger*, and *I Hope We're Not the Last*—and were known for their passionate performances and impactful lyrics that blend aggressive hardcore energy with melodic undertones. Their final album, released in 2011, became a defining anthem for fans of hardcore music, and the band disbanded shortly after in 2012, having left a lasting influence in the Florida hardcore scene.
