Casii Stephan confides, “I believe this song is one of the greatest when it comes to best-written love songs. It’s also just not an easy song to cover. Part of me viewed this as a challenge to myself and the other part viewed it as a way to express my respect for what Leon did as a songwriter and musician. Recorded in one take (It was Take #4), it forced me to accept the performance with all its nuances just like the song describes the acceptance between the two lovers. It ain’t perfect and that’s the beauty of it.”

Recorded in one take at The Church Studio in Tulsa, which he (Leon Russell) founded, Casii’s rendition is deeply soulful and present, giving a stirring take on the timeless song.

Casii Stephan is an authentic songwriter, who writes her songs honestly, from the depths of her emotions, with lyrics that push back on negative societal norms like sexism, ageism and “playing nice” as a woman. She uses writing to deconstruct her own beliefs with an underlying hope that things can change, inviting listeners on their own journey.

We are enthralled with her latest single, which is a timeless and emotional cover of Leon Russell’s “A Song for You” – Casii Stephan’s rendition is a must listen for all music fans
