Chase Atlantic - Neptune Theatre - Seattle, WA
From Sia to Silverchair, Kylie Minogue to Natalie Imbruglia, Australia has continued to produce artists and bands over the years who have raced into the mainstream in almost every genre there is. If the sold-out Seattle stop on their global tour is any indication, it's likely just a matter of time until Chase Atlantic, one of Australia's newest musical exports, continues that tradition.
Readers of Visible Voice may recall the spotlight on the uber-talented Canadian artist LIGHTS earlier last year. Well, LIGHTS thought highly enough of Chase Atlantic to invite them on her global tour, which is pretty much the highest form of vouching there is in the music industry. Just as Muse is a three piece band that sounds much, much larger, the same can be said for Chase Atlantic's three member formation: somehow, they produce a sound that one would swear must have come from a band with a minimum of six members.
Chase Atlantic's blend of catchy choruses with bass heavy alternative R&B over live drums - think Tame Impala mixed with The Weeknd - is a sure-fire recipe for success on the airwaves, Spotify, and the Billboard charts. For you Lyft and Uber drivers out there, prepare yourself to pass the aux chord to many passengers in the near future and be introduced to Chase Atlantic.
