Brian Chase

Chaikin Records

Chaikin Records, owned and operated by drummer Brian Chase, is dedicated to the intersection of musical language in its diversity. A particular emphasis is placed on rock, jazz, classical, and sound art, and the ways in which they overlap. Focusing further within these broad circles, championed are the communities of the avant-garde: musicians and music scenes happening at the forefront of the ever evolving dialogue of creative discourse and expression. The word ‘Chaikin’ is Brian’s familial surname before it was changed to ‘Chase’ by his paternal grandfather.

CKR 001 is Drums and Drones: Decade, a triple album and 144 page book, out on June 15th. Visit https://www.chaikinrecords.com/drums-and-drones for more info.

CKR 002 is planned for mid summer and CKR 003 for the autumn. Visit www.chaikinrecords.com for info on these releases and more.
