Chase McDaniel
Summary
Raised by his grandparents in Greensburg, Kentucky, Chase McDaniel is one of Nashville’s most determined singer-songwriters — proof that grit and heart still matter. After graduating from the University of Louisville, he moved to Nashville to chase Country music dreams, only to be sidelined by the pandemic. Jobless and down to his last $12, he nearly gave up before a friend loaned him enough to stay afloat. McDaniel worked double shifts, slept four hours a night, and wrote with producer and best friend Jerry Jacobs whenever he could. That relentless work ethic paid off. He hit #1 on the Billboard Country Digital Song Sales and iTunes Country charts with “Project” and reached #3 all-genre on iTunes with “Your Daughter.” Signed to Big Machine Records, McDaniel released his debut EP Blame It All On Country Music and has since taken his Country-rock sound and rich baritone to sold-out crowds nationwide. With “Burned Down Heaven” at Country radio and new music like “Risk It All,” McDaniel’s mission is simple: help others find the light.
