Chase Bryant

Music defines Chase Bryant. At every level and in often unexpected ways, his truths are expressed in melody, lyrics, hooks, and sounds, but his reality goes even deeper than that. Bryant’s heritage is defined by music. His upbringing, his craft, his inspiration, and his obsessions are all centered in the same — which is good — because there’s no other way to explain how a 22-year-old Texan could already be a top-flight guitar player, head-turning songwriter, and a co-producer of his debut album. "Upbringing," his recent album, captures the essence of his personal and musical evolution, drawing from his roots and experiences to shape his artistry.

Bryant's impact extends beyond music into the realm of mental health advocacy. With multiple Top 10 singles and tours with notable artists like Brantley Gilbert and Tim McGraw, he uses his platform to share his journey through a mental health crisis and recovery. His album "Upbringing," produced by Jon Randall and featuring an all-star band, received wide acclaim and features prominently in his talks. These engagements often feature performances of 1-2 acoustic songs, where he shares inspiring messages about resilience, recovery, and the importance of mental health awareness, emphasizing that "they’re not alone in this fight."

Raised in Orange Grove, TX (pop. 1,200), Bryant’s grandfather played piano in Roy Orbison’s first two bands and, later, for Waylon Jennings. His uncles co-founded the group Ricochet, which had several hits in the ’90s. From a young age, Bryant was captivated by music, which has been a constant in his life and a medium through which he connects with others. Through his struggles and reconnection with his roots in Texas, he has found renewed inspiration, leading to music that resonates with themes of identity, struggle, and resilience. Bryant’s authenticity and heartfelt approach to music and speaking have made him a sought-after figure in both musical and motivational circles.
