About
When you begin your career as an independent artist dreaming up songs in your bedroom with little more than a USB microphone and a $200 laptop purchased off Facebook Marketplace, the enormity of world tours with megawatt Country stars, headline shows at iconic hometown venues, and thousands of fans singing your songs back to you every night can certainly be a lot to digest. Chase Matthew will be the first to admit this wild, ever-humbling rocket ship ride of a career trajectory he’s currently on is oftentimes hard to comprehend. “Sometimes I struggle to even believe it myself,” he admits.
The reality, however, is indisputable – the Nashville singer-songwriter has quickly emerged as one of Country music’s most promising, in-demand young artists. In 2024 alone, Matthew – who to date has amassed more than 1 BILLION global career streams – officially became a Billboard Hot 100-charting artist with his Top 5, PLATINUM-certified debut single “Love You Again.” He also garnered his first award show nomination (2024 People’s Choice Country Awards), supported red-hot artists including Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan, and released a pair of acclaimed EPs (We All Grow Up and Always Be Mine) alongside cross-genre collaborations with Flo Rida and Fernando & Sorocaba.
His success has also been validated with multiple RIAA Gold and Platinum certifications, including the PLATINUM-certified breakout smash “County Line” and the PLATINUM-certified “Love You Again.” Adding to his breakout momentum, Matthew was recently named an iHeart On The Verge Country Artist, with his single “Darlin” currently blazing up the Country radio charts.
In 2024, Matthew was named a member of The Opry NextStage Class of 2024 and went on to sell out his favorite hometown venue, the iconic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, on February 21. That same day, he released his most accomplished project yet: the thrilling and highly personal self-titled third studio album, CHASE. Over 13 brand-new tracks, Matthew spread his sonic wings like never before, writing on nine of them (including the solo-written and co-produced “WAITING ON YOU TO CALL”). The LP blends party-starters (“DRIVES MY TRUCK,” “I DON’T WANNA KNOW”) with some of his most vulnerable material to date, including “MISSIN’ ME MISSIN’ YOU” and “HEART HALF EMPTY,” a stunning duet with Lauren Alaina.
“I haven’t been this excited about a project since my first album,” Matthew declares. “Some of these songs are really vulnerable for me and come from a place that I haven’t talked from in a while. But I would rather die trying and care less about what people think than not show people who I am. This album is a perfect representation of me, which is why I named it CHASE. My life is a chase. My goals are a chase. We’re all chasing something.”
Considering all that Matthew accomplished in the less than four years since he unveiled “County Line,” it may appear as if he’s been on the fast track to success. But the humble artist will be the first to tell you that’s hardly the case: Matthew believes making it in Country music is less about talent or luck and more about work ethic and connection to fans. It’s why he’s consistently made it a top priority to directly engage with his fanbase via social media, creating a unique bond between artist and audience. “I find my light through the internet by talking directly with the fans,” he explains. “I cherish that. There’s a direct connection with my fans that a lot of artists struggle to build.”
And that’s to say nothing of the way he interacts with his fans during every one of his momentous live performances. In 2024, Matthew surpassed 145 shows in a year and entertained over 1 million fans. “Every night we rip the roof off the place,” he says with a smile. “That plays a huge role in the growth I’ve had. It’s one thing to make your name blow up on social media – you can get likes and views. But when someone buys a ticket to your show, you have one chance to win them over. That’s why I give it my all every night. If there’s something you can expect from a Chase show, it’s a party.”
The reaction to Chase’s live performances attracted the attention of several global brand partners that integrate perfectly into his lifestyle. Lucas Oil, Jockey, and Twisted tea have all inked long term deals that fuse their brands into Chase’s career to provide fans with unique opportunities and experiences.
Matthew admittedly says he’s had little time to reflect on his whirlwind journey to the present, but he’s never been more focused to take his career to the next level.
“With everything moving and growing so fast, it’s certainly going to be a lot of work,” he realizes of what lies ahead in 2025. “But I’m ready for it. That’s what put me here today.”
