Case Oats

**Case Oats** is an American alternative country band based in Chicago, fronted by vocalist and songwriter Casey Gomez Walker. The band, which includes Max Subar (guitar), Jason Ashworth (bass), Scott Daniel (fiddle), and Spencer Tweedy (drums), blends heartfelt storytelling with a laid-back, rootsy sound that draws on the traditions of alt-country while feeling fresh and personal. Emerging from Chicago’s vibrant music scene, they signed to Merge Records in early 2025 and released their debut album *Last Missouri Exit* in August 2025. The album beautifully captures Midwest life and relationships with honest, wry lyrics and rich instrumentation, taking listeners on a road-trip through the alt-country genre’s emotional and musical landscapes.

Casey Gomez Walker's songwriting is noted for its candid, unvarnished look at experience and growing up, often steeped in memories of Missouri and Chicago life. The band recorded *Last Missouri Exit* in a relaxed, collaborative process, imbuing the album with a natural, lived-in feel. Songs like "Bitter Root Lake" and "Seventeen" showcase their mix of melancholy, humor, and vivid character studies, with influences ranging from classic country and folk to indie rock. Case Oats’ sound and storytelling have won praise for being genuine and evocative, making them a promising new voice in alternative country music.
