Chance Hayden - Family Tree

This full-length debut from Chance Hayden showcases his versatile talents as a guitarist, songwriter and producer. The Family Tree shares a collection of songs much inspired by Hayden's entry to fatherhood, connecting his personal roots with the belief that we're all a part of a universal family. The album's eight original works are joined by a lively rendition of Curtis Mayfield's 'If I Were Only a Child Again," rounding out the overall message. With fine tuned intentions for The Family Tree, Hayden chose to spotlight vocalist Redray Frazier who delivers Hayden's lyrics with passion and sincerity. Beneath the vocals lie deep band arrangements with sweet female backups, crisp horns and vintage keyboards that maintain the album's rich, organic feel. Hayden's tasteful guitar work shines brightly throughout The Family Tree which features inspired performances from a dozen A-list musicians. From the first listen this album continuously blossoms and stands to become faithfully planted in one's musical library.
