Casey McQuillen is back with another confidence anthem on her newest single, "Better." "Better" is a feel-good, cheeky song about knowing your worth and settling for nothing less. It's relatable, fun, and filled with Casey's charm and wit. From the beginning, Casey's artistry focused on self-love and empowerment. She created and starred in the sensational anti-bullying tour "You Matter," for over 50,000 schools worldwide, and her music tackles themes of body positivity and mental health. And "Better" is yet another wonderful example of this. "Better" is filled with catchy fun mantras to tell yourself whenever you need a reminder that you are worth it. With "Better," Casey shows why she is one of the most necessary and important songwriters around now.





Casey has a special ability to make meaningful music fun. From the very first line ("My friends all tell me do it for the plot") "Better" establishes itself as a song that doesn't take itself too seriously. Casey's strong sense of humor and tongue-in-cheek is a total blast to listen to. "Better" is just an all-around good time. The lyrics are playful and the production is an instant earworm with a groovy R&B-inspired sound. It's hard not to smile when listening to "Better" which makes the messaging hit all the harder. The lyric "I know I'll just be fine if it's just me forever" is sung with such strength and conviction that Casey makes you feel like you can be happy on your own too. "Better" is an unapologetically bold and loud self-love anthem that we could all use right now.


Casey McQuillen is a singer-songwriter based in London, England. In 2014, Casey was a contestant on season 13 of American Idol, where millions of viewers fell in love with her voice and distinct personality. Since then, Casey's career has only grown bigger and brighter. As previously noted, Casey went on the “You Matter” Tour, which was a massive success. She inspired thousands of students worldwide and the tour became recognized by the UN. Her message of self-love and strength landed her a performance on the Kelly Clarkson show. Casey’s debut album Skinny, created several hits, including “In & Out,” which currently has almost 200,000 streams on Spotify. Casey has made a strong name for herself as an inspirational artist who champions self-acceptance and you can listen to her discography, including “Better” on all streaming platforms now.
