Casiotone for the Painfully Alone: Small and handmade and… over

He’s visited the city a lot these past few years, but this is the last time he’ll be here for a while. Because after fifteen years of writing and performing his keenly observed lo-fi ditties under the name Casiotone For The Painfully Alone, he’s decided to call it a day.
