Born and raised in the rural eastern plains of Colorado, Chauncy Crandall developed his love for music through attending the local church and participating in family sing-alongs. His early songwriting was influenced by old church hymns and his parents record collection which included artists such as Marty Robbins, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Hank Williams. Crandall’s style has since developed into a synthesis of Americana, blues, gospel, and roots-rock infused with modern sentiments. Crandall cultivated a loyal following with the release his first record, “Every Song is About You,” in 2012. The positive reception of this first album led him to assemble a small band with which he entered the studio in 2014 to record his follow-up. Released in 2014, “Breakdown” was also met with critical acclaim, winning the Colorado Springs Indy Music Award for Album of the Year and earning him invitations to a number of regional music festivals. Summer of 2017 Crandall will tour promoting the release of his third album, “Daily News”. Full of soul and spirit, you can effortlessly lose yourself in his authentic lyricism and storytelling. Tour will launch in Houston, TX and will continue into the Mid-West and West Coast, finishing late September in Fort Walton Beach, FL. Chauncy currently resides in the Florida panhandle were he performs regularly and continues to expand his base of loyal listeners with a sound that Bill Forman of the Colorado Springs Independent describes as “disarmingly poetic.”
