I just wanted to take the time to thank Canada. My music (mostly "Steal My Heart") has been playing there on CBC digital since 2002 and I have been receiving statements from BMI because of that. That radio station has been very good to me and the web hits I get from Canada as well is fantastic! Before my promoter tragically passed away, she was working on getting me a concert in Vancouver. But, with her death went those plans for awhile. I would absolutely LOVE to do a concert there... so if anyone out there knows of an opportunity, let me know

Valentine’s Day

This Valentine's Day was pretty good this year. I treated my girlfriend to a massage and got one myself as well. I was not feeling well, so we took it easy while I prepared for the concert later that night. So, we ate, napped and I played piano.
The concert was great! We sold out the show and had to actually add chairs. At that time, I was feeling really ill and during the concert had a few "oh crap, am I going to throw up..." moments. Luckily, they passed and all was well. My vocalists rocked! Nikki is perfect for the song "Falling" (coming on next cd) and Stacey sang "When I'm With... Finish Reading This Entry »
It’s a Go!

I feel like the piano musician equivalent to Rockie Balboa lately. Decidedly I haven't been practicing like I should and my fingers are slow and out of shape. But, since I have made some concerts, suddenly I'm forced to get everything back into gear. So, these upcoming concerts are like my prize fights. I'm rusty doing drills I usually could do with my eyes closed, having a conversation with someone else and bouncing a soccer ball on my head... ok, maybe not so much on the ball thing. Nonetheless, my out of shape practicing is in full steam. Now, I just need to find a nice set of steps to run... Finish Reading This Entry »
Time Goes…

I know, I know... where have I been? Well, to be completely honest, I really don't know. I have figuratively jumped in my car and turned where I felt like turning without any regard to a destination.
It's unbelievably hard being single in your 30's. The dating game is an about-face to what it was 10 years ago and you're stuck juggling life's experiences and discerning between biases. But, it is also a lesson in humility. I started out trying to bypass the infatuation stage and asked the hard questions and tried to force the hard questions to be asked. Safe to say, I have come off quite... Finish Reading This Entry »
Dear Lucille,

My Amazing Great Aunt
I wish I could convey in a letter, through my words, with a gift, by a touch or with a glance how important you are, have been, and always will be in my life. You taught me how to smile: you taught me how to laugh. You made me realize that life isn't about the matter of... Finish Reading This Entry »
A Musician’s Journal
Posted On: February 3rd, 2007 by Chad ·
Winter time in Colorado has afforded me, especially 2006-2007, an opportunity to reflect upon my life, my career, and my aspirations. In my last entry, I said good riddance to 2006 for all of the bad that it was. It was a year, however, that has changed my life enormously. This time last year, I found out that my long time promoter killed herself. With her went a concert she was setting up for me in Canada since that is where my music is playing the most. Her death also took my contacts, networking and label opportunities with it. Her company dissolved, and with it, so did my files. But, I forged... Finish Reading This Entry »
