Chaser opening for Guttermouth in February
Music News | Jan 7th, 2010
Hailing from Orange County, CA Chaser, who are already a staple on the OC music scene. This melodic punk outfit is ready to bring their message to the masses with the release of their new CD “The Big Picture” on February 16 on Bay Area independent Drop Anchor! Entertainment. The band is also looking forward to non-stop touring through out 2010 with a February trek with Guttermouth to kick off the year.
With guest appearances by Authority Zero vocalist Jason Devore and some sweet guitar licks from Dan Palmer of Death By Stereo The Big Picture allows for a reflection of what is truly important in life, and expresses the need to overcome the adversity and hardships that everybody endures. The lyrics remind us to look back at our mistakes, and trials we have encountered, to become a stronger, better person. The songs flow into each other like a timeline or clip of one’s life. In the end, The Big Picture comes around full-circle; reflecting back on one’s life and seeing the positive in it, as if through the innocent eyes of a child. If you have ever found something worth sacrificing for, experienced the overwhelming feelings of guilt and regret, or struggled battling your own weaknesses, you will be able to relate to this album. Everyone searches for the meaning of life; this is Chaser’s definition.
Independently, Chaser has released 2 CD’s, toured the US extensively with the Vans Warped Tour ‘08 as well as criss-crossed the states as well as successful trek through Europe garnering legions of new fans at every stop. The band has also had local radio success with their single “Autopilot” from their 2006 release “Numb America” at KROQ in Los Angeles.
