Casual Coalition is an always rotating musical cast, spearheaded by multi-instrumentalist/singer-songwriter Craig MacArthur & multi-instrumentalist/engineer-producer David Simon-Baker, who lead both the live & studio bands.

“Rendering Of A Ghost,” Casual Coalition’s debut album of original material, was released on October 31st, 2020, during the height of the coronavirus pandemic. The band had been writing & performing the tunes that appear on the album years prior, during their regular performances at the (now closed) legendary, Phil Lesh owned venue, Terrapin Crossroads from 2016-2019.
