With his new album, “Hold On Tight”, the Canadian musician Kevin Chase is definitely ripe for an international career. After all, the 35-year-old has, for years, been one of the best interpreters in the border area between country and blues rock.

The new album, helped on by Anthony Little (Reba McEntire, Tina Turner), reveals Kevin Chase as an artist who succeeds in combining the energy of acts like AC/DC, with the subtle emotional world of contemporary folk and country artists. “Hold On Tight” is HOT. Literally!
