Born from Oxford’s famously closeknit and innovative artistic community, Chad Valley’s musical ambition has always stretched far beyond the context of its creation. Early EPs Chad Valley and Equatorial Ultravox were produced Hugo Manuel’s bedroom, but conveyed the exotic flair fit for the early hours at a paradisiacal island nightspot. The thoroughly modern pop producer released his debut album Young Hunger in 2012, and it’s considerably more consummate than most first outings.
The album was a collaborative affair, featuring guest vocalists such as Twin Shadow , Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs and Active Child which all goes to display the wide scope with which this album was conceived.
The two years following the release of Young Hunger saw Chad Valley tour relentlessly across the world. There were two headline tours in the US (with sold out shows across all the major markets) and a simarly sucessful European one. Support tours with many highprofile artsists have introduced his music to wide audience and in a similar manner, the inclusion of his song Shell Suite in the number one box office smash film Warm Bodies has seen legions of new fans and close to 1 million plays of the song on YouTube.
Most recently, at the end of 2014 Chad Valley supported Erasure on a soldout run of dates around UK and Ireland ending with an intimate 200 capactiy headline show in London which sold out in three days. Since then he has been busy finishing his follow up to Young Hunger, which is slated for an October 2nd release with Cascine Recvords and in Japan on Rallye Records.
