Key Information

Greg Chaisson (born August 9, 1958) is a Canadian bass guitarist, singer, songwriter, and producer who has played in various bands, most notably Badlands, which featured former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Jake E. Lee, vocalist Ray Gillen, and drummers Eric Singer and Jeff Martin, respectively.

Biography

[edit]

Chaisson got his start in a popular local Phoenix, Arizona band called Ghost Rose[1] but his first recordings of note came with Surgical Steel and St. Michael, two early 1980s Phoenix bands that both featured his future Badlands bandmate, Jeff Martin. St. Michael would contribute the song "The Beauty, The Power" to the U.S. Metal Vol. IV compilation while Surgical Steel appeared on Metal Massacre II with "Rivet Head".

Chaisson then made the move to Los Angeles, CA where he joined one of the last incarnations of Steeler where he was replaced by his younger brother, Kenny, when the band morphed into Keel. Chaisson would join a succession of L.A. bands, including Legs Diamond, Hellion, and Terriff (with future Ozzy guitarist Joe Holmes).[2] In 1986, he unsuccessfully auditioned for Ozzy Osbourne's band where he met Jake E. Lee who invited him to try out for Badlands a couple of years later.[3]

After the demise of Badlands, he joined Sircle of Silence, featuring one-time Accept vocalist David Reece, but left before the first album was recorded. In the ensuing years, Chaisson kept busy recording with the Blindside Blues Band, Die Happy, Red Sea, Pat Travers, and Darrell Mansfield, among others. In 1994, he released a solo album, It's About Time, which featured former Badlands bandmate Eric Singer on drums, ex-St. Michael guitarist Jim McMellen, and Riverdogs alumni, Rob Lamothe and Marc Danzeisen. Chaisson briefly united with former Badlands bandmate Jake E. Lee when he joined his new band Red Dragon Cartel in 2014[4] but was forced to bow out less than a year later[5] after being diagnosed with cancer.[6]

Chaisson resides in Phoenix, AZ with his wife and children where he coaches and teaches baseball and manages Bizarre Guitar & Drum.[7] Additionally, he plays in an original band named Kings of Dust which features vocalist Michael Beck who briefly fronted Red Dragon Cartel, guitarist Ryan McKay, and drummer Jimi Taft.[8] In 2021, Beck was replaced by Ken Ronk on vocals and the band's name was changed to Atomic Kings.

Greg Chaisson (born August 9, 1958) is a Canadian bass guitarist, singer, songwriter, and record producer best known for his role as a founding member of the hard rock band Badlands. Born in Toronto, Ontario, Chaisson moved to Phoenix, Arizona, in his early twenties and began his professional music career in the late 1970s, initially playing in local bands before gaining prominence in the 1980s Los Angeles heavy metal scene. He first rose to attention as the bassist for Steeler, a short-lived band featuring guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen and vocalist Ron Keel, contributing to their 1983 self-titled debut album. Following Steeler's dissolution, Chaisson played in groups such as Surgical Steel, Legs Diamond, and Blindside Blues Band, while also auditioning for high-profile positions including Ozzy Osbourne's band in 1985, where he reportedly contributed uncredited bass lines to the album The Ultimate Sin. In 1989, Chaisson co-founded Badlands with former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Jake E. Lee, vocalist Ray Gillen (ex-Black Sabbath), and drummer Eric Singer (later of Kiss), creating a supergroup that blended hard rock, blues, and heavy metal influences. The band's debut album, Badlands (1989), achieved commercial success, followed by Voodoo Highway (1991); a third album, Dusk (1998), was released posthumously after Gillen's death in 1993 from AIDS-related complications. Beyond Badlands, Chaisson has maintained an active career, including bass duties in Die Happy (on their 1993 album Volume 2), Red Sea, and a 2014 stint with Jake E. Lee in Red Dragon Cartel. He released his solo debut, It's About Time (1994), on Frontline Records, showcasing his songwriting and production skills. In recent years, Chaisson fronted Kings of Dust, whose self-titled album debuted in 2020 (later renamed Atomic Kings in 2021, which he left in 2024), while overcoming a 2015 Stage 4 cancer diagnosis to continue performing.

Early career

Beginnings in Phoenix

Greg Chaisson was born on August 9, 1958, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and relocated to , in 1969 at age 11, during his junior year of school (likely referring to junior high school). He resided there until 1982. Chaisson's entry into music began in the mid-1970s with his role as and singer in Ghost Rose, a popular local band in Phoenix that performed at desert keg parties and built a regional following among youth audiences.

By the early 1980s, Chaisson advanced his career with Surgical Steel, a Phoenix-based heavy metal band he joined as , contributing to their track "Rivet Head" on the influential Metal Massacre II compilation released in 1982 by . This appearance marked one of his earliest notable recordings and helped elevate the band's profile within the burgeoning New Wave of British Heavy Metal-inspired underground circuit.

Move to Los Angeles

In the early 1980s, seeking greater opportunities in the burgeoning and metal scene, Greg Chaisson relocated from Phoenix to in October 1982, arriving with only a handful of acquaintances to support his ambitions as a . This move positioned him amid the vibrant yet cutthroat ecosystem, where aspiring musicians vied for gigs and label attention in an era dominated by aesthetics and high-stakes networking. Upon arriving, Chaisson quickly integrated into the local circuit by joining Steeler in 1983, contributing bass to their self-titled debut album with vocalist and guitarist . As bassist, he participated in lineup auditions for guitarists and performed in high-profile live settings, including a sold-out debut at venue, before the band disbanded. Following Steeler's dissolution, Chaisson's younger brother, Chaisson, stepped into a prominent role in Keel, the subsequent project led by Ron Keel, marking a familial transition within interconnected LA metal circles. Chaisson's involvement extended to several other LA-based groups, where he served as bassist and contributed to live performances and demo recordings amid the scene's relentless turnover. With , a veteran act echoing 1970s influences like Led Zeppelin, he joined in 1983, touring and bolstering their regional shows before departing to prioritize emerging opportunities in . He briefly played with Hellion, an all-female-fronted heavy metal band, supporting their energetic live sets and contributing to early demo efforts that captured the era's raw aggression. In Terriff, alongside future guitarist , Chaisson handled bass duties around 1987, helping develop unreleased demos and performing locally to hone the band's sound before it evolved into other projects. A pivotal moment came in 1985 when Chaisson auditioned for the bassist position in Ozzy Osbourne's band, traveling to , , at Sharon Osbourne's invitation after Bob Daisley's departure. During the session, he jammed extensively with guitarist , forging an immediate musical rapport—"Jake’s really into jamming, so we kind of developed a ," Chaisson later recalled—though Osbourne ultimately selected , citing Chaisson's appearance as unsuitable for MTV's visual demands. Navigating the LA hard rock landscape proved arduous, characterized by fierce competition among hundreds of bands chasing limited club slots and major-label deals in the glam metal surge. Chaisson encountered constant lineup flux and the pressure to conform to image-driven trends, often networking at Strip hotspots like The Whisky or Gazzarri's, where "a lot of the bands from that generation... met each other at a band bar," yet many struggled without the right "look" or connections to break through. This environment demanded resilience, as aspiring acts like Chaisson's faced rejection and reinvention amid the era's transient alliances and stylistic expectations.

Badlands era

Formation and early success

Following his dismissal from Ozzy Osbourne's band in 1987, guitarist contacted bassist Greg Chaisson in 1988 to form a new group, drawing on their prior acquaintance from Chaisson's 1985 audition for Osbourne's lineup. Lee also recruited vocalist and drummer , both ex-Black Sabbath members, to establish as a quartet rooted in ' hard scene. Badlands released their self-titled debut in May 1989 via , produced by Paul O'Neill, which peaked at No. 57 on the 200. The record showcased the band's fusion of heavy metal riffs and bluesy grooves, highlighted by tracks like "High Wire" and "Winter's Call," with Chaisson's prominent bass work anchoring the songwriting and infusing live shows with dynamic energy. The group supported the album with extensive U.S. touring, building a dedicated following through high-energy performances that emphasized their soulful, riff-driven sound. In 1991, after Eric Singer departed to join KISS, drummer Jeff Martin filled the role for Badlands' second album, Voodoo Highway, also on Atlantic Records, which reached No. 140 on the Billboard 200. Produced amid growing internal tensions and Ray Gillen's early health struggles with AIDS symptoms emerging around 1990, the effort featured standout tracks such as "Shine On" and "Soul Stealer," further emphasizing the band's blues-metal hybrid through Chaisson's collaborative song contributions and robust stage presence. Despite challenges, the release solidified Badlands' reputation for raw, influential hard rock in the early 1990s.

Lineup changes and final album

The death of vocalist in December 1993 from AIDS-related complications profoundly affected , halting the band's momentum after the release of their second album, Voodoo Highway, and forcing a reevaluation of their future. Gillen's declining health and internal tensions had already led to his departure in 1992, creating emotional and creative voids within the group, as the band had been built around his powerful, soulful delivery. This loss, combined with prior lineup shifts—such as drummer Eric Singer's replacement by Jeff Martin for Voodoo Highway—intensified the challenges facing bassist Greg Chaisson, guitarist , and the remaining members. After an initial attempt to replace Gillen with vocalist Debby Holiday, he briefly returned for a tour in 1992 before departing again. In response, the band recruited vocalist John West around 1992-1993 to fill the void, allowing them to record demos and perform a limited number of shows as they sought to rebuild. However, these efforts were overshadowed by the posthumous release of in 1998 on Records in , a collection of raw demos from 1992–1993 featuring Gillen's improvised vocals and capturing the band's unpolished energy. Tracks like "" exemplified themes of perseverance amid adversity, reflecting the group's determination to push forward despite personal and professional turmoil. Chaisson contributed song ideas to , including riffs for "The River," while internal tensions—such as his strained relationship with Singer, marked by initial hostility during rehearsals—added friction but also drove a shift toward a heavier, more blues-infused sound in their later material. The band's dissolution came shortly after these attempts to regroup, exacerbated by label disputes with , which withdrew tour support and ultimately dropped them amid the rising dominance of in the mid-1990s . This shift in tastes diminished opportunities for acts like , leading to the group's breakup around 1993. Despite the abrupt end, Badlands developed a dedicated , with their albums selling hundreds of thousands of copies and enduring as fan favorites for their raw intensity. Chaisson has played a key role in preserving this legacy, sharing reflections in interviews on the band's innovative blend of influences and the personal resilience that defined their brief but impactful run.
