Singer/Songwriter Tyler Chase
from Black Canvas Hosted by Jeriel Harvey
From the early days of childhood, Tyler Chase has had an eye for his future and an ear for what that sounded like. With the solid foundation of his country upbringing, Tyler learned to express the values of a small town in a big world through his writing and performing. As the son of a preacher, his exposure ranged from tent revivals to international crusades. Over the past several years, there have been many paths but one focus for Tyler Chase— to write and sing the songs his life created. Tyler’s roots in the format run deep. In the early 60s, his Grandfather drove from Texas to Tennessee to seek an opportunity in country music as a singer songwriter. Unable to afford a room, he camped on the Harpeth River in preparation for a meeting with the famed Chet Atkins. But it wouldn’t be Tyler’s lineage without equal portions of dreamer and rebel. When Atkins told Grandpa, he’d buy his songs only if he could sing them, Grandpa told him to “kiss it” and hauled it back to Texas. Like his Grandfather, Tyler has always stayed locked in on a vision of what he wants. His forthcoming EP, “Tyler Chase,” presents a collection of songs written by Tyler and a few of his friends. Produced by Evan Sieling, the energy and soul of this up and coming entertainer is evident in every note and word. Life has taught Tyler Chase many lessons that have culminated in a unique style of storytelling. Those sounds are the heartbeat of his simple approach to writing and singing.
