Chase Atlantic Tickets

Chase Atlantic in Concert

While Australia has produced plenty of incredible, genre-busting bands, few are as defiantly chameleonic as Chase Atlantic. The youthful trio—Christian Anthony and brothers Clinton and Mitchel Cave—are obviously fond of the sleek R&B-pop originating in Canada (think Drake and The Weeknd) as well as glitchy modern U.S. hip-hop. But the group's 2017 self-titled debut also alights on rakish '80s soul-pop, One Direction-style power pop, and even incandescent slow jams.

Not even many seasoned groups can handle so much genre hopscotching, although the members of Chase Atlantic are no strangers to exceeding expectations. Prior to coalescing in the band, the young Cave brothers were avid YouTube performers known for their uploads of covers by acts such as Bruno Mars, Owl City, and Ed Sheeran. Anthony and Mitchel Cave were also in a quintet called What About Tonight, which gained notoriety after appearing on "X Factor Australia" and being praised by One Direction on the show.?

For the three musicians, however, deciding to pool their talents in Chase Atlantic paid immediate dividends. 2014's ‘Dalliance' EP quickly led to 2015's ‘Nostalgia' EP—which featured the hip-hop-infused modern rock tune "Friends," a wrenching postmortem on a crumbling relationship—and 2016's saxophone-aided funk/R&B swerve "Obsessive." Around this time, Chase Atlantic inked a deal with MDDN, the artist-focused music company founded by Good Charlotte's Benji and Joel Madden.?

This association not only led to Chase Atlantic opening Australian Good Charlotte shows, but also helped the band take a giant global leap forward. Today, the band is poised to conquer the world, thanks to tours with Sleeping With Sirens and Lights, as well as a stint on the 2018 Warped Tour. In other words, Chase Atlantic is bound and determined to put Australia on the map once again—and is clearly on the verge of succeeding.
