ACL 2024: Chance Peña

Friday at 3:30pm.  He plays opposite Penny & Sparrow who also played ACL in 2023. Preview here. We opted to see Randall King instead.

According to his Youtube:

Born and raised in Tyler, Texas, Chance Peña is a 24 year old singer/songwriter and producer. Making music from an early age, he has cultivated a unique style of traditional storytelling infused with modern musical influences. He began working with Secret Road Music Publishing as a songwriter at 17 years old and saw immediate success. Peña continues to cultivate his artistry by writing, producing, engineering and performing his own songs.


In early 2019, Peña's dream-chaser ballad, "Up, Up & Away" moved into the spotlight thanks to a placement in the highly acclaimed heartfelt drama, Five Feet Apart. Entering 2020, Peña secured his first major label cut and later his first Grammy nod with John Legend’s “Conversations in the Dark”, the lead single off his Grammy winning album, “Bigger Love”, having co-written the song several months prior.

Here's "Up, Up & Away". 

It doesn't mention but he also appeared on The Voice. Apparently he has a big following and a couple Gold Records. 

"In My Room" is good. So is "i am not who i was". 

This is a newer one. A toe-tapper. We may have to check out some of his set.
