Putting herself on the map with a stand-out debut, Chase delivers the emotive and introspective ‘Pretend Again’. Produced by Philip Weinrobe (Adrianne Lenker, Florist, Tomberlin) in his studio in NYC, today’s release acts as a flawless introduction to Chase’s artistry.

’I didn’t intend for something so intimate to become a song. But songs have a funny way of finding you and giving you language for the things you didn’t know you needed to name.”

Chase’s shares an insight into her journey of self-discovery, woven through poetic lyricism, she pinpoints the moment her outlook changed. Sharing more, Chase explained: “It’s interesting how whole revelations can begin with a single question. For me, it was a little bit like finding a stray thread hanging off the edge of a sweater. Once I started pulling, the answers came to me in the form of whole unravelings.

This song is my story of walking the holy ground of pure possibility: of being, all at once, the most terrified and the most overwhelmingly free I’ve ever felt. It’s the sound and shape of the grief that comes with realizing the world I built my worth around was a lie, and the destabilizing truth that the lie was never me.’
