Tumblr, I need your help!
My brand new album just hit iTunes & it’s currently @ #38 in the iTunes Top Singer/Songwriter charts! Now, that’s awesome and all… But I’ve never had one of my albums break into the top 20, sooooo, I’d kind of LOVE to see that happen ;)
CLICK HERE TO BE AWESOME & PREVIEW/PURCHASE ON iTUNES!
And please, feel free to reblog this! I did something crazy & I literally wrote/recorded this album on my own in my bedroom over the past 5 days, so no matter what this already amazing to just go for it and see it get this far.
Love,Chad 
P.S. - If it does happen, I’ll do something special for you all and give you a free b-side track or something!

Backseat Goodbye - “This Summer Love”

My brand new music video for my brand new single.

July 16, 2011
Delayed.

I’ve got some bad news, but also a bit more good news that overshadows the bad…

Bad News: The release of my new EP, “Oh, How I Waste These Days”, is being pushed back to sometime in August (as soon as I know an exact date, I’ll let you all know!)

Good News One: I’m going to give you all a song off of the EP for FREE this Tuesday, so the extra wait isn’t so bad.

Good News Two: The reason the reason the release is getting pushed back is because I want to put five songs on the EP instead of just three.

I’m sorry to push the release back, but I’m just not happy with it being only three songs… So, in order to give you a more quality release I just feel like this is a good idea.

So, I’ll see you all Tuesday when I’ll be giving away “This Summer Love” from the EP for free! :)

Yours,
Chad

Backseat Goodbye - “This Summer Love” (Preview Clip)

Here’s a preview of the first single from my upcoming new EP, out July 19th! For a little insight into the song… I wanted to write something that felt like a good song to listen to while driving, and this is what came of it.

July 1, 2011
I’m excited to announce: On July 19th, I’ll be releasing a brand new EP, “Oh, How I Waste These Days”!!!
The EP will feature four brand new songs, and will only be available digitally. (I would have made it available physically, but it’s really a spur of the moment release because I wanted to give you all something to listen to while I’m still writing my two new full-length albums.)
Here’s the tracklisting:Oh, How I Waste These Days - EP1. This Summer Love2. I Miss You All So Much (Demo Version)3. Sometimes I Just Need To Be Alone4. TBA 
Oh, and I’ll be sharing a clip of the single from the EP, “This Summer Love”, tomorrow afternoon, right here as well! It’s a summer driving jam.
Yours,Chad

Backseat Goodbye - I Miss You All So Much (ROUGH DEMO Clip)

Here’s another rough demo of one of the songs for one of the new albums I’m currently writing. Even though the demo features acoustic instruments this one would be on the electric-based album and feature mainly electric instruments. And like the first demo I posted for the other album, I have no idea if this will end up making it on the final album, but it is one I’ve liked for a while.

Here are the lyrics that are in the clip:

Take it slow
I don’t know what to do
All in time
All in time, they say

All my friends live in different cities
Now I see what they meant by “keep in touch”
Don’t lose them,
You know they’re a part of you

The golden ways of easy days left with age
22 was a good year, I just didn’t know it then
All my life I’ve been a kind man
Just seemed to make more sense
Than being a dick without a care in the world 

Hear other demos I’ve posted for my new albums I’m writing:
Sometimes I Just Need To Be Alone

Backseat Goodbye - Sometimes I Just Need To Be Alone (DEMO Clip)

Randomly decided to share a bit of a demo of one of the songs for one of the new albums I’m currently writing. This one would be for the acoustic-based album. I have no idea if this one will make it on the final album, but as of now it’s one of the ones I like a lot.

Here are the lyrics that are in the clip:

My mind has always been this way
I’ve got the words, but don’t know what to say
It seems my time is running out

Don’t pay attention
To all these songs that seem to mention a way out
They’re always written by a lonely man
The words are people he used to know
Now he sits inside an empty bar
Singing songs about past lives and ghosts
