As a soloist, she has performed with the New England Brass Band, and was named the winner of the Young Artists Competition at the 2015 Northeast Regional Tuba and Euphonium Conference.

As a passionate advocate of contemporary music, Ms. Casey-Clyde is currently commissioning a new piece for euphonium, and has premiered a new piece for tuba quartet composed by Shawn Davern, titled ‘the natural lands.’ She has also been involved in a commissioning project with Boston University, premiering four new works for wind ensemble, which will culminate with the release of an album in 2018. The Mercury news touted that “Lauren kicks brass on the euphonium. And in the future she aims to share that passion with young music students.”
