CHASER EIGHT

For the past decade, Connecticut-based alternative rock pop band Chaser Eight have been evolving. 

During this evolution they’ve twice been voted New England’s Best Alt-Rock band in The Deli magazine’s year-end poll, and opened for the likes of Panic! at the Disco, Buckcherry, Faster Pussycat, The Dollyrots, and Badfish. 

What they’re most proud of, however, is the impressive catalog of music they’ve created. 

Chaser Eight – which consists of founding member *AUDRA* (vocals/guitar) and is rounded out by Brennan DiLernia (bass), and Chris Siena (drums), and Mike Cocco (guitar) – has released 6 EPs, 6 standalone singles, and two full-length albums. 

On August 16, 2024, the band released a remix of their song “Step Into The Light” that was produced by their new producer, The LX, and mastered at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London.

The band added to this legacy on April 14, 2023 with the release of their seventh EP, Wide Awake, the creation of which began when the entire world stopped. 

“We’ve been practicing once a week, every week, for 10 years,” *AUDRA* explains, “so continuing to write, and create was super important to us during such a crazy time. It brought a sense of normalcy, and allowed for a uniquely creative environment.” 

It also brought about something different in their lyrics. *AUDRA* notes that on Wide Awake, “There’s a real sense of urgency, and despair in a lot of these lyrics. There is a longing in every song, too. These songs are about wanting, and being aware of the wanting. They are calling out.” 

The juxtaposition between the lyrics and cover art, the latter of which was co-conceived by the band, and local artist Katie Matican., is completely intentional. “These songs are putting it all out there,” *AUDRA* says, “and the title Wide Awake is so aware, and then the art is closed off. It’s a forceful shutting out of the truth. One eye closed, and one eye being blocked. There must be some statement about existentialism there, right? We are deeper than just a rock band that likes to have fun … but we do like to have fun. A lot of fun.” 

 When it comes to their extended run, and current 10 year anniversary as Chaser Eight, *AUDRA* says, “Between having the stamina to produce 10 years of new things, and the commitment to actually stay together for this long, I feel grateful.” 

 Grateful, and Wide Awake for the next step in their musical evolution.
