And you thought I had forgotten...
Thanks for stopping by my page. New music (finally!) as of January 16, 2006--"In The Circle" uploaded this morning.
More in the works--new recordings on the way!
Primarily acoustic singer/songwriter material here.
Guitar/vocals/bass/rhythm section/other instruments all done by Bill Chandler. Most of the recordings are done in my home studio.
Working on updating the site now.
In a nutshell--I started playing guitar when I was 10; got serious about it at 14; added bass at 15, and went on from there. I've been singing all along. Went to Berklee from 1980-1984, graduated with a degree in Professional Music, principal instrument of Tuba...which is why I now work with computers and play guitar and bass on the side. Been writing for years, never as prolific as I'd like to be, but I keep at it.
Not currently playing out--but I'm working on that...stay tuned.
Folk/rock--influences include Harry Chapin, John Hiatt, Tom Waits, Warren Zevon, Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne, Dan Fogelberg, Crosby Stills Nash & Young
Well, I ain't techno or electronica...Guild acoustic guitars (6- and 12-string); Fender Highway 1 Stratocaster electric guitar, Fender Precision bass, Boss DR-5 for rhythm section and synth parts, recorded on a Frankentower PIII 533MHz machine (thanks, Jim!).
I'd like to thank the Academy (ok, never mind...) Thank you for supporting home-grown, home-made music!
