Making a Scene Presents Gerry Casey’s Interview with Chase Walker

The Chase Walker Band is a modern blues roots rock and soul band based in Southern California. Chase earned a degree in songwriting and music business from Belmont University, CEMB in Nashville TN. Chase is a Songwriter, Producer, Sync Music Professional, Multi-talented Musician and arguably one of the best young guitar players in the country. He is a two time finalist in the prestigious Lee Ritenour Six string theory competition and John Lennon songwriting finalist. Walker’s guitar virtuosity, excellent songwriting, and powerful vocals have garnered comparisons to greats like Warren Haynes, Chris Stapleton and Rory Gallagher.

Walker has appeared in Guitar World Magazine, Guitar Player Magazine and Ultimate Guitar dot com. He has also been featured in American Blues Scene Magazine as a “Top 10 Artist You Need to Know” and named “Future of Blues Rock – 10 Acts To Watch Under 30” by Blues Rock Review among artists like Marcus King, Greta Van Fleet and Larkin Poe. His second album “Not Quite Legal” (recorded when he was just 16 years old) received two International Independent Music Award (IMA) nominations for Best Blues Album and Song of the Year, joining past nominees Walter Trout, Selwyn Birchwood, and Jeff Healey.

Since the 2019 release of “Live at the Woodshed”, Chase has been writing and producing music and garnering praise from industry insiders and fans alike.
