Ontario singer-songwriter CHASE STEVENS has recently returned from a songwriting trip to Nashville. He's a member of the NSAI and regularly performs in their events. Chase is here to share some of his songs and to talk about his start in music, his musical influences and about the art of songwriting. After a past trip to L.A. failed to produce a record deal, he left the music scene and focused on his new business of operating an art gallery. Chase explains “For a good number of years I didn’t perform or write, then one day my six year old daughter who had been listening to a cassette EP I had recorded asked my why I didn’t do music anymore. I really didn’t have an answer, but it wasn’t long after that I picked up my guitar and started to get back into writing”.
