About Me
Mainstream music is typically defined with innovation and pop culture. Chase, an accomplished singer/songwriter and musician is more than just mainstream, he is a story...an experience! In his music, there is a truth and an escape that screams with sincerity and soul. "My music is an avenue for my audience to get to know who I am and where I come from. It has sometimes been my own window to take a second look at myself. I was influenced and introduced to music by the greats like Stevie, Michael, Elvis...but my newer age influences are diverse. Craig David, Alicia Keys, Boys 2 Men...to Garth Brooks. Honestly...I just write what I hear and what is natural, and then it seems to just catch on.", says Chase. A true vocalist with backgrounds in R&B and jazz, his sound is distinct with big infectious hooks, intricate harmonies, and melodic textures. Music placed it's lips on Chase as a young child, when he started singing at the age of 2, and years later gave him his hand in the form a guitar and piano. He started writing songs for local acts and working for production companies on projects doing vocal productions, writing, and arranging...all while writing for his own project. His work caught the eye of Sony Music International and was immediately signed to Epic Records and was off to Europe. He did his share of touring and promoting, he and his band soon had a top 20 radio hit and performed for audiences from 500 to 15 million. Chase later arrived back in the states and recorded a solo album that he independently promoted and had such success that he landed his first radio hit in Orlando. The song was on regular rotation at WXXL106.7 (Clear Channel), Orlando's top 40 hit music station. This led to him working hand in hand with famed producer Veit Renn (50 million sold worldwide) who is the man behind multi-platinum hits like "I'll Never Break Your Heart"--Backstreet, "Drive Myself Crazy"--'NSync, and many many more! Veit and Chase co-wrote the songs and enlisted other industry heavy hitters such as Alex Greggs (Pink, Michael Jackson, Brandy) to take the music to the next level. They have created shuffles in desks at major labels, and are currently receiving offers from various companies.
