Always on the move as one of the Pacific Northwest’s most trusted string slingers, guitarist Chance Hayden has performed avidly since the mid-00s with wide recognition as a chameleon-like musician who fluidly adapts through the realms of jazz, blues, funk and soul. He continually splits duties as both a bandleader and sideman for diverse acclaimed artists such as Farnell Newton, Darrell Grant, Saeeda Wright, LaRhonda Steele, Shelly Rudolph, Lloyd Jones, John Primer, Mel Brown and Jarrod Lawson, with whom he has toured 15 countries. Hayden's albums <a href="spotify:album:79trPaWHs0vaKg6YacbFPm" data-name="Get Somethin'">Get Somethin'</a> (2018) and <a href="spotify:album:5Pbuo7aJxgH5uxorm7abjJ" data-name="Grab & Go">Grab & Go</a> (2020) were followed by the stand-alone single <a href="spotify:track:15tSazrhHY7SFO1jtIqo4V" data-name="Shag Bag">Shag Bag</a> (2022), which features iconic keyboardist Ronnie Foster (of 70s-era George Benson fame) and has garnered international acclaim as a classic groove piece sounding like an early to mid-70s CTI or Blue Note recording. Most recently, Hayden centered his creative efforts around the seldom-featured baritone guitar with <a href="spotify:album:6OKo37RombVc2KX8VQYWHL" data-name="Baritone Gold">Baritone Gold</a> (2024), a collection of a dozen 60s-inspired originals that span from surf to soul-blues with classic soundtrack vibes. As a composer and producer, Hayden’s works have been featured in major motion pictures and television including the Sony Pictures #1 box office film The Perfect Guy, the BET series Being Mary Jane, The Cowboy Channel and with top brands such as LANDR and Red Bull Music.
