As I continue to write more music in the ambient realm I am also continuing to curb my performance stress by booking more performances!  Solo that is.  This winter has brought me to a simplistic way of thinking.  Releasing "Carry Me" was one of the best experiences I'v...

We've all heard the term "good things come to those who wait." In some case I suppose that is the best answer, it is never good to rush into things. (Especially relationships) But in my case, if i had waited any longer to restart my musical life, absolutely nothing wou...

I am trying to be more transparent with my story in hopes that it will help someone else finally reach out and get the help they need and realize that it is COMPLETELY possible to live a life you truly deserve.  In the depths of that mental quagmire coupled with a seem...

I know I am not alone when I say that!  For some it becomes a real question, "am I willing to do this another year?"  That became very real for me this winter as I now enter my 10th year living here.  I've now lived here just about as long as I did in Seattle.  But as...

"Award Winning Singer/Songwriter Jason Chaffee"

Sorry, I had to do that headline just to see how much I'd blush reading it.  It was quite embarassing for those that couldn't see.  I am not much of a self promoter or a gloater.  Probably a bad combo for the industry that...
