Chelsea Hanson

Chelsea Hanson is a singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and wanderer of the world. She grew up singing, songwriting, and performed in musicals, choruses, academies, dance studios, and even an award winning A capella group in college. After graduating Magna Cum Laude at VCU in Richmond, VA, she moved to Spain to teach English and also performed. She returned to the states a year later to become a radio personality. After a serious car accident where she broke both her legs and then learned how to walk again, she decided to pursue her music more seriously. During the pandemic, she left her radio job and started working on super yachts, traveling to 20 countries in two years. In total, she’s been to 27 countries, which has impacted her music and songwriting exponentially. She believes music heals and unites people from every culture and country, and loves collaborating with other talented artists.

In the past year, she was a featured artist on WTKR’s morning show “Coast Live”, WHRO’s “Emerging Artist Concert Series”, WHRV’s “Hunter At Sunrise” morning radio show, on Pharrell William’s “Something In The Water Festival” community playlist, and has been releasing music professionally since 2018. She's opened for VEER magazine’s Best Of winner the “JD3 Band” and performed at the Richmond Blues and Bluegrass festival.

She believes we are all souls having beautiful human experiences, and loves the magical alchemy that takes place when people come together and share music.
