Cory Wong joined Casey in the ONErpm studio this Thursday ahead of his show at City Winery and after the release of his album The Optimist. After getting off the road with Vulfpeck, Cory felt energized by the creativity of the tour and gathered friends to record some sessions. Going off of voice memos and instincts, the resulting funky, joyful, and fun party music represents a year of growth. Cory played the title track off his new album, “The Optimist,” as well as “Pleasin’” off of his last record. Catch Cory back on the road with Vulfpack and buy his new record The Optimist.
