Chase
Rice (  Interview with Chase Rice ), the Billboard and iTunes Chart topping indie country performer,
signs with CAA for exclusive representation. Jim Butler and Meredith
Jones will be his Responsible Agents.
 
“When
I recorded this album, I built the tracks around a live performance,”
recalls Chase. “I look forward to getting it out in front of new
audiences.  It’s definitely been a very exciting year seeing the pieces
fall into place since the release of the record.”
 
Chase dropped his debut album Dirt Road Communion on March 20th
which climbed to #6 on iTunes Top Country Album Charts, #15 Billboard
Heatseekers and punched through at #48 on the Billboard Top Country
Album Chart. Chase is also a co-writer on “Cruise,” the debut single
from Republic Nashville’s newest duo Florida Georgia Line.
 
Dirt Road Communion
features strong rooted contemporary country songs that invoke a good
times spirit like the lead single “How She Rolls,” alongside “Pop a Top”
and “Whoa,” but you’ll also find personal and insightful examinations
of his darker side on “Jack Daniel’s & Jesus” and “Room 205.” Chase
moved to Music City shortly after coming in runner up on the hit TV
series CBS Survivor: Nicaragua.  Since the move, this North
Carolina reared performer has been running at full throttle developing a
grass roots connection to his ever expanding fan base. 
 
Before
his bold move to Nashville, Chase was a star on the University of North
Carolina – Chapel Hill football team.  He’d trade in his Carolina blue
to suit up for Hendrick Motorsports after college where he served on the
pit crew for Ryan Newman and Jimmie Johnson.  His parent’s always
pushed for excellence and his father particularly carried a huge
influence on his choices up till his death.  “Dad was a fighter and I
hope I have his same spirit.  I wear a belt buckle that says ‘Cowboy
Up!’ every time I take the stage to remind me of all that he did to get
me here.”
