Baton Rouge 60's rock band, the Greek Fountains, co-founder Casey Kelly moved to New York and got fellow Greek Fountains member Duke Bardwell a job playing bass with folk artist Tom Rush. He has performed with James Taylor, Gordon Lightfoot, Jackson Browne, and Jerry Jeff Walker. Kelly landed a record deal and was touring with Loggins and Messina, where he was rejoined by Bardwell as a duo opening for Loggins and Messina for two years.
