Key Information
Career
[edit]2012–2013: Before Chase Atlantic
[edit]Christian Anthony and Mitchel Cave were in a boy band called What About Tonight. They formed the band to audition for season 4 of The X Factor Australia. However, they were eliminated in week two, coming in eleventh place.[1][2]
Mitchel Cave's older brother, Clinton Cave, had a successful YouTube channel, ClintonCaveMusic, where the brothers would release cover songs regularly.[3] In 2012, the three released their first cover together[4] which would be of Bruno Mars' Locked Out of Heaven.[5] During high school, the trio focused on producing music rather than performing, particularly Mitchel Cave as an EDM Producer.[6] Later on, in 2013, they professionally performed together for the first time under the name K.I.D.S. (Kind Imaginations. Destructive Situations.) and released the original song "Addicted."[7] They have since removed all content from the channel.[8]
2014–2015: Dalliance and Nostalgia
[edit]The trio first released music under the name Chase Atlantic when Clinton Cave recruited Mitchel and Christian to assist in recording a university project.[9] The band would get their name, "Chase Atlantic" from nowhere. According to Mitchel, the name Chase Atlantic means nothing, it was a combination of two words that the band members liked, Chase and Atlantic, "We spend a couple of minutes trying to come up with a plausible and profound explanation for their band name. "It [Chase Atlantic] literally means nothing," says Cave. "It's so hard to find band names, we just put two words we really liked together that can't be associated with anything else."[10] Chase Atlantic officially released their first EP Dalliance on 26 May 2014.[11] Their early sound was often described as Pop Rock and Pop Punk.[12]
In February 2015, the band released their second EP, Nostalgia,[13] causing their song "Friends" to be associated with multiple Tumblr edits. "Friends" was also later certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in 2022.[14]
Later in 2015, the band caught the eye of Benji and Joel Madden, and they signed the group to their management company, MDDN, in early 2016.[15]
2016–2018: EPs and debut studio album
[edit]In January 2016, Chase Atlantic released "Obsessive". They followed up with their third EP, Paradise, in February 2016, which they promoted extensively.[16][17]
In January 2017, Chase Atlantic released their fourth EP, Part One, to coincide with their signing with Warner Bros. Records. This was followed by Part Two in March 2017. In mid-2017, the band announced their first tour of the United States, opening for Sleeping with Sirens' Gossip: Up Close & Personal Tour.[18][8] Chase Atlantic released Part Three in September 2017.[19]
Their self-titled debut album, Chase Atlantic, was released in October 2017.[20] Later in 2017, they went on a headlining tour in the United States, where they played 16 shows across 11 states, followed by an Australian tour opening for Blackbear.[21][22] In March 2025, "Swim" became their first song to reach 1 billion streams on Spotify.
In 2018, the band continued touring the United States by opening for singer Lights and playing US and UK festivals, including Bonnaroo, Vans Warped Tour 2018, and Reading/Leeds Festival 2018.[23]
They released standalone singles "Numb to the Feeling" and "Tidal Wave" in mid-2018.[24] Later that year, they also left Warner Brothers Records and went independent.[25]
2019–2022: Phases and Beauty in Death
[edit]The group spent January to April 2019 in Los Angeles, working on their second album.[26] In April, they announced the Phases Tour: North America for the summer of 2019, in support of their second album, Phases, and set the release date for 28 June 2019.[27] The album was preceded by three singles, "Her", "StuckInMyBrain", and "Love Is (Not) Easy", which were released on 10 May, 24 May, and 7 June 2019, respectively.
In 2020, they began work on their third studio album, Beauty in Death, which the band released on 5 March 2021.[28][29] Alongside their album rollout, they also released a collaborative single with dark pop artist Plvtinum, called "Hit My Line".[30] In 2021, Chase Atlantic also embarked on their 'Beauty in Death' North American tour, performing across various cities from October 1 to November 17. On 2 May 2022, the group announced the release of a deluxe edition of Beauty in Death.[31]
2023–present: Return from Hiatus and Lost in Heaven
[edit]In 2023, after a break to work on themselves,[32] Chase Atlantic made their return to the music scene with the release of the single "Mamacita" on 26 September. The track, which blends elements of alternative R&B and pop, marked the beginning of a new era for the band.[33]
On 20 September 2024, they set the release of their next studio album, Lost in Heaven, for 1 November 2024. The album preceded three new singles "Die for Me", "Doubt It" and "Ricochet", released on 23 August, 20 September and 11 October 2024, respectively, and would also include their previous release "Mamacita."[34]

During the production of Lost in Heaven, Chase Atlantic faced a significant setback when lead vocalist Mitchel Cave accidentally left his laptop in the rain, resulting in the loss of a substantial amount of their work. Reflecting on this incident, Cave explained, "We basically had to make a fifth album, because we lost so much of what we were gonna do." He further added, "I still don't keep any backups. I guess I like playing with fire. Or maybe I like the challenges, because none of our albums have been a piece of cake."[35] Despite this challenge, the band persevered, reworking the lost material and ultimately releasing the album to critical acclaim.
On 16 October 2024, Chase Atlantic embarked on their Lost in Heaven Tour, with performances scheduled at multiple venues worldwide, which include The Toyota Music Factory in North America,[36] the Riverstage Brisbane in Australia,[37] The O2 Arena in United Kingdom, and the Lanxess Arena in Europe.[38]
In a podcast interview with The Zach Sang Show, released on 13 February 2025, Chase Atlantic announced that they are working on a deluxe edition of their album Lost in Heaven. Christian Anthony described this upcoming release as "an extension of the story on Aura and Void," featuring material that "didn't make the album."[39] The deluxe edition aims to expand upon the themes explored in the original release, incorporating additional tracks that complement the existing narrative.
On 14 August and 12 September 2025, the trio released the singles "Facedown" and "Remind Me," respectively, which were announced as part of the deluxe edition of Lost in Heaven, titled Lost in Heaven (High as Hell), released on October 3, 2025.[40] The deluxe edition included two additional tracks, "Warcry" and "Victory Lap," the latter featuring alternative rock singer De'Wayne, and Australian singer-songwriter Larissa Lambert.
On the 2 October 2025 episode of Artist Friendly with Joel Madden, the band announced a forthcoming concert film set for theatres, documenting their sold-out performance at The O2 Arena in London.[41] During the interview, they also stated that their most recent tour at-the-time of publication had sold more than 250,000 tickets.[42]
Music style
[edit]In 2018, the band described their music as "dark alternative pop punctuated by rock and R&B". Over time, their sound has encompassed alternative pop and alternative R&B,[43] with their influences including Tame Impala, the Weeknd,[44] the 1975 and The Neighbourhood.[45] In 2025, with the release of Lost in Heaven, the band shifted toward hip-hop, pop and electronic music, according to YouTube Music.

2012–2014: Formation and early work
Brothers Mitchel Cave and Clinton Cave grew up in Cairns, Australia, where they studied jazz and classical music from a young age. Meanwhile, Mitchel Cave, at age 17, joined the Australian boy band What About Tonight in 2012 alongside Christian Anthony, whom he met during auditions for season four of The X Factor Australia; the group disbanded after a brief appearance on the show in 2013. Inspired by their shared experiences, Mitchel Cave, Christian Anthony (aged 16), and Clinton Cave (aged 20) began collaborating on original songs at home in Cairns following the boy band's dissolution. In March 2014, the trio formally formed Chase Atlantic, drawing early influences from the local R&B, hip-hop, and pop scenes in Cairns, as well as familial exposure to diverse music genres. They self-produced their initial tracks and uploaded them to SoundCloud, where the songs garnered modest online traction among early listeners through organic shares and social media promotion. Their first independent release, the EP Dalliance, arrived in May 2014, marking the start of their DIY approach to music creation and distribution. Without formal support from a record label, the group faced challenges in professional production and visibility, relying on home recording setups and platforms like SoundCloud and YouTube to build a small but dedicated fanbase via social media engagement. This period laid the groundwork for their independent ethos, emphasizing experimentation in alternative R&B and pop sounds before expanding into more structured releases.2015–2017: Early EPs and self-titled album
In 2015, Chase Atlantic continued to build momentum from their debut release by promoting the Dalliance EP, originally self-released on May 16, 2014, through platforms like SoundCloud, where tracks such as "Meddle About" from their subsequent work began gaining traction among early listeners. The EP's distribution emphasized the band's raw, alternative R&B sound, self-produced in Cairns, Australia, and it helped establish a grassroots following via online sharing. The band's second EP, Nostalgia, arrived on February 21, 2015, expanding their sonic palette with trap-influenced beats and introspective lyrics, self-released independently. Featuring tracks like "Meddle About" and "Friends," the project saw "Friends" achieve viral attention through associations with Tumblr edits and social media, amassing early streams and solidifying their appeal to a youth-oriented audience. To support the release, Chase Atlantic embarked on their first headlining Nostalgia Tour across small Australian venues, performing to intimate crowds and honing their live energy. By late 2016, Paradise marked the culmination of their independent era, released on December 20 as a five-track EP delving into themes of youth, escapism, and fleeting romance. Songs such as "Slow Down" and "Moonlight" showcased evolving production with atmospheric synths and rhythmic pulses, self-distributed to maintain creative control. The EP's release coincided with additional Australian performances, including support slots that boosted their domestic visibility. Chase Atlantic's self-titled debut album, released on October 4, 2017, via Warner Bros. Records—following their signing in early 2017—comprised 14 tracks that refined their sound into a more polished alternative R&B framework, incorporating elements from prior EPs. Standouts like "Into It," "The Walls," and "Swim" highlighted matured production techniques, with the album accumulating over 10 million global streams by year's end, reflecting their rising independent success. This period also saw them join tours like blackbear's 2017 Australian run, further expanding their fanbase before relocating to Los Angeles in late 2017 for broader international exposure.2018–2020: Signing with Warner and Phases
In 2018, Chase Atlantic experienced a significant breakthrough with the viral success of their single "Swim" from their self-titled debut album, which gained widespread attention through a music video release and streaming platforms, helping to solidify their presence under Warner Bros. Records following their 2017 signing. The track's popularity marked an important step in their transition to a major label, building on their independent roots and expanding their reach beyond Australia. The band bridged this momentum with the release of their EP DON'T TRY THIS on January 25, 2019, under MDDN, LLC in exclusive license to Warner Bros. Records. This six-track project introduced more experimental sounds and darker themes, exploring "devilish minds" through songs like "Church," which delved into introspective and provocative lyrics about temptation and self-reflection. The EP served as a transitional release, showcasing the trio's evolving production style with trap-influenced beats and atmospheric elements that hinted at the sonic direction of their upcoming full-length. Phases, Chase Atlantic's debut studio album under Warner Bros., was released on June 28, 2019, comprising 18 tracks that blended alternative R&B, pop, and electronic influences. Key singles included "Heaven and Back" and "Falling," which highlighted the album's themes of mental health struggles, relationships, and personal growth, recorded primarily in Los Angeles during spring 2018 after an extensive tour. The band reported positive dynamics during the sessions, with brothers Mitchel and Clinton Cave alongside Christian Anthony feeling creatively refreshed post-touring, allowing for collaborative experimentation without major conflicts. It debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums chart, marking their first U.S. chart entry and signaling growing domestic recognition. Promotion for Phases emphasized music videos for standout tracks and robust social media engagement, including behind-the-scenes content and fan interactions on platforms like Instagram and Spotify, which amplified their atmospheric visuals and lyrics. Collaborations began to emerge, with features from artists in the alternative scene, further diversifying their sound. The album's release expanded their international fanbase, particularly in North America and Europe, as evidenced by sold-out shows on the subsequent Phases Tour and increased streaming numbers, laying groundwork for future projects amid emerging signs of creative fatigue that would influence their later hiatus.2021–2023: Beauty in Death and hiatus
In March 2021, Chase Atlantic released their third studio album, Beauty in Death, via Fearless Records, consisting of 12 tracks that marked a maturation in their sound with darker, more introspective production. The album delved into themes of mental health struggles, toxic relationships, drug addiction, depression, and isolation, reflecting the band's personal experiences amid the ongoing COVID-19 lockdowns that limited traditional promotion efforts. Singles such as "PARANOID" and "SLIDE" preceded the release, garnering attention for their blend of alternative R&B and trap influences, while the title track served as a poignant closer emphasizing cycles of loss and renewal. Critics praised the lyrical depth, noting how tracks like "EMPTY" and "WASTED" captured raw vulnerability without sacrificing the group's signature hypnotic grooves. A deluxe edition of Beauty in Death arrived on May 3, 2022, expanding the project to 18 tracks with bonus material including "OHMAMI" (featuring Maggie Lindemann), "ESCORT," "CHXSE," and "STRANGER THINGS," which introduced remixes and fresh explorations of hedonism and emotional turmoil. This version enhanced the album's thematic cohesion, adding layers of collaboration and sonic experimentation that aligned with the band's evolving production style. As pandemic restrictions eased, Chase Atlantic resumed live performances, embarking on North American tour dates in late 2021 followed by the 2022 Cold Nights Tour, which spanned Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and additional U.S. venues, allowing fans to experience the new material in immersive settings. The tours highlighted the album's energy, with setlists blending Beauty in Death cuts alongside earlier hits, and received acclaim for the band's dynamic stage presence. By late 2022, following the completion of their touring cycle, Chase Atlantic announced an indefinite hiatus, with the members shifting focus to individual creative pursuits and personal recharge after years of relentless output. Frontman Mitchel Cave explored solo endeavors, including production experiments and collaborations outside the band dynamic, while the group as a whole paused new releases until 2023. During this period, the enduring popularity of their catalog grew, exemplified by "Swim" surpassing 500 million Spotify streams by early 2023, underscoring the lasting impact of their discography. Reflections on Beauty in Death emphasized its role in the band's artistic growth, with reviewers highlighting how its honest portrayal of inner conflicts resonated deeply with listeners navigating post-pandemic recovery.2024–present: Lost in Heaven and deluxe edition
Following a brief hiatus announced in late 2022, Chase Atlantic returned in September 2023 with the single "MAMACITA," signaling the start of a new era. They marked their full comeback with the single "DIE FOR ME" on August 23, 2024, a dreamy, beat-driven track that reintroduced their signature blend of alternative R&B and introspective lyrics. The song quickly gained traction, amassing millions of streams and signaling the band's evolution toward more mature sonic explorations. This momentum led to the release of their fourth studio album, LOST IN HEAVEN, on November 1, 2024, via Fearless Records, featuring 13 tracks such as "FAVELA," "RICOCHET," "YOU," and "NIGHT CALLS." The album delves into themes of transcendence, excess, self-destruction, and escapism, with pulsating production that contrasts vulnerability and indulgence across its runtime. Commercially, it debuted at No. 4 on Spotify's U.S. Top Albums chart, No. 7 on the Global Top Albums Debut chart, and No. 1 on Spotify's U.S. Alternative Debut Albums chart, while also entering the ARIA Albums Chart in Australia at No. 4. In 2025, the band expanded the project with the deluxe edition LOST IN HEAVEN (HIGH AS HELL), released on October 3 via Fearless Records, adding four new tracks—"VICTORY LAP" featuring De'Wayne, "WARCRY," "FACEDOWN," and "REMIND ME"—alongside remixes to deepen the album's duality of light and dark. Timed with their ongoing world tour, the reissue previewed material through live debuts, including "FACEDOWN" performed early in European dates, enhancing fan engagement via setlists that blended old favorites with fresh cuts. The band's streaming success continued to grow, surpassing 8.3 billion total Spotify streams as of November 2025. Chase Atlantic has confirmed plans for sustained activity, with no immediate hiatus in sight, as they focus on touring and future releases amid their post-comeback momentum.[10]Musical style and influences
Genre evolution
Chase Atlantic's early sound, from 2014 to 2017, was rooted in alternative R&B and pop, infused with trap beats and hip-hop elements that marked a departure from traditional pop-rock structures. Influenced by artists like The Weeknd, Post Malone, Tame Impala, The 1975, and The Neighbourhood, their music featured moody programmed beats and atmospheric production that blended introspective vocals with rhythmic experimentation.[11][12][11][13] During their mid-period from 2018 to 2021, the band shifted toward incorporating electronic and rock elements, evident in albums like Phases and Beauty in Death, where heavier production techniques amplified their alternative R&B foundation.[14] This evolution included the prominent use of saxophone solos, adding organic texture to synth-driven tracks and creating a more layered, genre-blurring sound.[15] In their recent work from 2024 onward, including the album Lost in Heaven (2024) and its deluxe edition Lost in Heaven (High as Hell) (2025), Chase Atlantic has embraced a more experimental alt-pop style, with psychedelic and industrial touches that fuse distorted synths and heavier rhythms, resulting in a darker, more immersive atmosphere through additional tracks that enhance cohesion and emotional depth.[16][17][7][18] This phase blends live instrumentation, such as saxophone, with electronic synths to produce a darker, more immersive atmosphere.[17] Overall, the band's genre evolution traces an arc from youthful escapism in their trap-infused pop roots to introspective maturity, a progression they have described as "phase music" that mirrors personal growth through sonic reinvention.[19][20]Themes and production
Chase Atlantic's lyrics frequently delve into themes of mental health struggles, toxic relationships, hedonism, and self-discovery, drawing from personal experiences to create a raw, confessional sound. Songs like "Consume" employ addiction metaphors to illustrate the consuming nature of desire and escapism, reflecting broader motifs of self-destructive behaviors amid emotional turmoil. Similarly, tracks on the album Lost in Heaven explore transcendence and hedonistic pursuits as coping mechanisms, with lyrics portraying the highs and lows of fleeting pleasures and inner conflict. These elements resonate through the band's catalog, emphasizing vulnerability and the search for identity in chaotic circumstances.[21][22] In production, Mitchel Cave's multi-layered vocals form the core, often enhanced with auto-tune to achieve an ethereal, otherworldly quality that complements the introspective themes. Clinton Cave's saxophone introduces jazz-infused flair, providing melodic breaks and atmospheric texture, while Christian Anthony's guitar riffs add rhythmic depth and emotional layering. The band's early work embodied a DIY ethos, with Mitchel producing tracks on software like Fruity Loops in self-taught sessions, resulting in raw, ambient sounds heavy on reverb and delay. Following their relocation to Los Angeles in 2016 and signing with Warner Bros. Records in 2017, production evolved post-2018 toward studio polish, incorporating trap-influenced beats in initial releases that gradually shifted to more orchestral elements in later albums for a cinematic scope. This progression was shaped by exposure to the LA music scene and the trio's collaborative process, where personal narratives inform a sound balancing confessional intimacy with broad appeal.[23][24][25][11]Band members
Current members
Chase Atlantic's core lineup consists of three members who have been together since the band's formation in 2014. Mitchel Cave (born December 2, 1996) serves as the lead vocalist and primary songwriter, also playing bass on several tracks. He previously gained early exposure as a member of the Australian boy band What About Tonight, which formed during the fourth season of The X Factor Australia in 2012 alongside future bandmate Christian Anthony. Mitchel oversees much of the band's creative direction, shaping their alternative R&B sound through introspective lyrics and genre-blending arrangements.[26][27][28] Clinton Cave (born July 4, 1993), Mitchel's older brother, contributes guitar, saxophone, and backing vocals, while also handling production elements. His saxophone work infuses jazz influences into the band's music, adding improvisational flair and depth to tracks like those on Phases. Onstage, Clinton brings high energy, often engaging the audience with dynamic solos and movement.[29][30] Christian Anthony (born September 3, 1997) provides rhythm guitar and vocals, complementing Mitchel's leads with harmonious layers and deeper tones on verses. A longtime friend of the Cave brothers, whom he met on The X Factor Australia in 2012, during which they were both members of the boy band What About Tonight, Christian emphasizes melodic structures in songwriting and delivers strong stage presence through charismatic performances and visual aesthetics.[31][32][33] The trio operates as equals in the creative process, with shared songwriting credits on the majority of their releases, fostering a collaborative dynamic that blends their individual influences into a cohesive sound. Since 2017, they have been based in Los Angeles, where they maintain a shared residence that doubles as a creative studio.[34][4][35][36]Touring members
Chase Atlantic initially performed live as a trio during their formative years from 2012 to 2017, relying on the core members' multi-instrumental capabilities to deliver their electronic and alternative R&B sound without additional support musicians. Beginning in 2015, the band expanded their live setup to accommodate larger venues and more intricate arrangements, incorporating touring members while maintaining no permanent additions to the core lineup. This shift allowed for fuller instrumentation during headlining tours, such as enhanced percussion and bass lines that amplify the production-heavy elements of tracks like those from Phases.[37] Key touring members include drummer Jesse Boyle, who joined in 2015 and provides dynamic percussion to bridge the band's rock and hip-hop influences in live settings.[38][39][40] Patrick Wilde serves as the touring guitarist and bassist, contributing to the rhythmic foundation and enabling seamless transitions between electronic programming and organic instrumentation on stage.[41] These musicians enhance the complexity of performances, such as amplifying saxophone sections played by core members during songs with jazz-infused elements. As of the 2025 Lost in Heaven Tour, the setup remains consistent with Boyle and Wilde supporting the trio, ensuring a robust five-piece live band configuration without rotating or additional session players reported. Occasional backing vocalists have appeared in select shows to layer harmonies, but no dedicated keyboardist is utilized, with electronic elements handled via pre-recorded tracks and core programming.[42]Tours
Headlining tours
Chase Atlantic began their headlining career with the Nostalgia Tour in 2015, performing at small Australian venues to promote their debut EP of the same name. The tour featured intimate club shows across cities like Sydney and Melbourne, including stops at The Lair at Metro Theatre in Sydney, drawing crowds to capacities under 500.[43][44] In 2017, the band expanded internationally with their first U.S. headlining tour, a fall run comprising 16 shows across 11 states from October 22 in Phoenix, Arizona, to November 16 in Toronto, Ontario. This tour marked a step up in scale, playing mid-sized clubs like Valley Bar in Phoenix and House of Blues Anaheim, while building on their Australian fanbase with additional domestic dates.[45][46] Following their 2018 signing with Warner Records, Chase Atlantic's headlining efforts grew significantly during the 2019 Phases Tour, which included over 25 North American dates from June 14 in Philadelphia to July 25 in Silver Spring, Maryland, supported by acts like Lauren Sanderson. The tour extended to an Australian leg in November, with headline shows in major cities to promote their album Phases. By 2021, the Beauty in Death Tour covered North American cities starting October 1, emphasizing their rising profile with stops in venues like The Phoenix Concert Theatre in Toronto. In 2022, the Cold Nights Tour delivered a extensive North American run of approximately 30 dates from July 6 in San Francisco to August 20 in Los_Angeles, plus a December Australian leg, totaling over 40 shows worldwide and featuring guests like Leah Kate and Xavier Mayne.[47][48][49][50][51][52][53] The band's Lost in Heaven Tour, supporting their 2024 album, commenced on October 16, 2024, at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas, with the North American leg announced in September 2024. This run included arena-scale venues such as Barclays Center in Brooklyn and two nights at Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles, where the band debuted unreleased tracks from the album. An international extension to Europe and the UK, announced in October 2024, ran from April 12, 2025, in Hamburg, Germany, to May 4, 2025, at The O2 Arena in London, featuring high-capacity stops like OVO Hydro in Glasgow. A further South American leg, announced on September 2, 2025, and tied to the deluxe edition Lost in Heaven (High as Hell) released October 3, 2025, included dates from November 11 in Porto Alegre, Brazil, at KTO Arena, to November 20 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with shows on November 19 and 20 at C Art Media in Comuna 15, supported by Xavier Mayne.[54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61] Over their career, Chase Atlantic's headlining tours have demonstrated substantial growth, evolving from 400-capacity clubs in their early Australian shows to arenas exceeding 10,000 attendees, such as The O2 and Barclays Center. Post-hiatus from major touring in 2023, their 2024-2025 outings have featured numerous sold-out performances, underscoring their expanded global draw.[20][62][63] As of February 15, 2026, no tour dates for Chase Atlantic in Europe have been announced for 2026. The band's official website and major ticketing platforms (Songkick, Bandsintown, Ticketmaster) list no upcoming live concerts in Europe for 2026.[61][64][65][66] The only related event is a worldwide cinema screening and live stream of the film "Chase Atlantic: Lost in Heaven - Live from the O2" on February 18, 2026, which captures their previous 2025 European tour finale at London's O2 Arena.[67]Supporting tours
Chase Atlantic's early career featured several supporting roles that provided crucial exposure to diverse audiences, particularly in the alternative rock and pop scenes. In November 2017, the band opened for blackbear on his Australian and New Zealand tour dates, marking one of their initial high-profile supports in their home region and helping to solidify their presence among local fans.[68] Later that year, from August to September 2017, they served as an opening act for Sleeping with Sirens on the U.S. leg of the Gossip World Tour, alongside Palaye Royale and The White Noise, performing across multiple cities and introducing their R&B-infused sound to post-hardcore and emo crowds.[69] Building on this momentum, in 2018, Chase Atlantic joined Lights as an opening act for her We Were Here Tour, which ran from January 30 to March 17 across North America, sharing stages with DCF and exposing the band to synth-pop and indie audiences in the U.S. and Canada.[70] That summer, they participated in the Vans Warped Tour 2018, a multi-band festival circuit that spanned over 40 dates across the United States from June to August, where Chase Atlantic performed on more than 20 stops, honing their live performance skills and significantly expanding their American fanbase through shared billing with acts like Motionless in White and Mayday Parade.[71] These supporting slots were instrumental in Chase Atlantic's growth, allowing them to gain cross-genre fans from alternative rock and pop-punk communities while refining their stage presence amid larger productions.[66] By 2019, the band shifted primarily to headlining tours in support of their album Phases, with fewer supporting roles thereafter as they focused on establishing themselves as a primary act.[68]Festival appearances
Chase Atlantic's festival appearances began in the mid-2010s, marking key milestones in their international breakthrough. Their early performances focused on Australian and initial U.S. events, gradually expanding to major global stages. These slots often featured high-energy sets adapted for festival crowds, emphasizing tracks like "Swim" from their 2017 self-titled album to engage diverse audiences.[72] In 2017, the band made their U.S. debut at Warped Rewind at Sea, a cruise-based festival sailing from New Orleans to Cozumel, where they shared stages with acts like Good Charlotte and Simple Plan. This four-day event from October 28 to November 1 provided exposure to American fans early in their career. The following year, 2018, saw them perform at Download Festival Australia on March 24 at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne, the inaugural edition of the rock-heavy event headlined by Ozzy Osbourne. Later that June, they appeared at Firefly Music Festival in Dover, Delaware, on the Porch Stage, alongside headliners Eminem and Kendrick Lamar, delivering a set including "Tidal Wave" and "Friends." They also played Lollapalooza Chicago in Grant Park from August 3-5, performing on the BMI Stage with an explosive set that included crowd surfing.[73][74][75] From 2019 to 2022, Chase Atlantic secured slots at prominent international festivals, enhancing their global profile. At Lollapalooza Chicago in 2019 (August 1-4), they returned for a main-stage-adjacent performance, featuring hits like "Swim" in a setlist tailored for the festival's eclectic vibe. In 2022, they debuted at the UK's Reading and Leeds Festivals over the August bank holiday weekend (August 26-28), playing the West Holts Stage at Reading and the Main Stage at Leeds, with a high-octane show including "Heaven and Back" that drew praise for its production and energy. These appearances helped solidify their presence in North America and Europe, often adapting their trap-R&B sound to festival formats by shortening intros and amplifying bass for outdoor crowds.[76][77] More recently, in 2024, the band performed at Summer Sonic in Japan, taking the stage at ZOZO Marine Stadium in Tokyo on August 17 and Expo '70 Commemorative Park in Osaka on August 18, sharing the bill with artists like Green Day and Megan Thee Stallion. Their set highlighted newer material from Lost in Heaven alongside fan favorites like "Swim," contributing to the festival's reputation for diverse international lineups.

Rumors of a Coachella performance in 2024 circulated among fans but remained unconfirmed by official announcements. To date, Chase Atlantic has not headlined any major festivals, but these appearances have significantly boosted their visibility, with each slot attracting thousands and fostering a dedicated international following through dynamic, visually immersive performances.[78][79]Discography

Chase Atlantic's extended plays represent early milestones in the band's evolution, showcasing their initial forays into alternative R&B, pop, and rock fusion while experimenting with production styles that would later define their full-length albums. These releases, primarily self-produced in their formative years, allowed the trio to refine their sound amid rising online popularity through platforms like Tumblr and YouTube. Collectively, tracks from these EPs have amassed over 500 million streams on Spotify alone, with standout singles driving much of the band's breakthrough visibility.[91] The debut EP, Dalliance, was released on May 16, 2014, via BMG Rights Management, marking the band's independent entry into the music scene with five tracks totaling 18 minutes and 43 seconds. Self-produced by the members, it features introspective themes of youth and relationships, highlighted by the atmospheric opener "Anchor Tattoo" and the remix closer "Gravity (So Much Higher Remix)." The EP served as a foundational testing ground for their blend of pop-rock elements, though it remained more niche before wider digital distribution.[92][93][94] Following quickly, Nostalgia arrived on February 21, 2015, also under BMG, expanding to five tracks clocking in at 18 minutes and 39 seconds. This release amplified their alternative R&B influences, with "Friends" emerging as a breakout track that gained traction through viral social media edits, amassing over 1 billion Spotify streams and signaling their growing fanbase. Other notable cuts like "Meddle About" and "Talk Slow" explore themes of fleeting connections and introspection, solidifying the EP's role in honing their moody, synth-driven aesthetic.[95][96][91] Paradise, released on December 20, 2016, via the band's own Chase Atlantic Records (later reissued on streaming platforms in 2019), consists of five tracks spanning 19 minutes and 37 seconds. As a transitional project bridging their EP era to full albums, it delves deeper into trap-infused pop with sensual, nocturnal vibes, exemplified by "Slow Down" (over 500 million Spotify streams) and "Moonlight." The EP's production marked a shift toward more polished, electronic textures, previewing the cinematic scope of their subsequent self-titled album.[97][98][91] Part One, released on January 27, 2017, through Warner Records following their signing, features three tracks in approximately 11 minutes.
