Better than the boy next door, Chip Greene is charming but true; spirited yet sincere. His fervent drive to deliver a mix of meaningful melodies are an escape from the ordinary. An ever so honest lyrical account of all that he has lived through and everywhere he has yet to go captivates the curious ear. A talent that grew from a pre-teen passion into a life calling was raised by top-shelf song-writing influences from Joel to Springsteen with the energy and emotion of U2 or Coldplay. Greene digs deeply into a world of of determinate, piercing, and powerful thoughts. Approachable and enchanting as his music is, he holds hearts hostage. His alternative edge and classic, epic sound have earned him an ever-growing fan base and applause-worthy merit. He stands as one of the top unsigned acts on the radar- ready to lead the best of the rest.
