Cas Haley (born December 27, 1980 in Paris, Texas) is an American singer/guitarist for Season 2 of America's Got Talent who sings rock music and reggae music. He also plays in a band called Woodbelly, and plays both acoustic and electric guitars. He lives in Arlington, Texas.
Haley came to fame when he performed a rendition of the The Police cover "Walking on the Moon". Haley also earned good reviews for playing Jackie Wilson's "Higher and Higher". He was criticized, however, for choosing a blues theme in the finals for overdoing the vocals. For the top eight competition, he made a rendition of the Lionel Richie's "Easy". In the finale, the judges chose "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis Presley (and covered by UB40) for him to sing. For the million dollar song, he chose "Sir Duke" by Stevie Wonder. He performed "Red Red Wine" with UB40 for his final song on the show's end.
Haley was the runner-up in the second season of America's Got Talent.
