This is Me, This is You, This is Chad


Getting knocked down and kicked around isn’t something you want to happen to yourself and is hard to rebound from. Most people get depressed and slowly come out of it, but Chandler Lehr came back fighting. Chandler, or Chad for short, was rising in Indy’s pop-punk scene with the band My Hidden Track. My Hidden Track had went through difficult time in the past with members changing but now had a solid line up. They released a CD and had been playing shows that everyone loved. Chad was part of one of the best bands in Indiana then got stabbed in the back. He was kicked out of his own band. This couldn’t have been easy on anyone. Working so hard and getting so far then it all gets taken away, but Chad didn’t let his set backs in life stop him. He took his situation and didn’t his old life stop him from being friend with members of MHT. He took his situation and showed how amazing he is.

This is where This is Me was born. Taking a look at him self Chad wanted to create something that was him. Taking from his influences in Say Anything and Hot Rod Circuit, Chad started to create songs about himself and his life. He wrote from his heart. Creating melodic guitar riffs with his rough voice make beautiful songs while still hitting hard. Even though he played new songs at his first acoustic show back, he still captivated the crowd into his life with his emotional lyrics. Getting his fans singing along to new songs people barely or didn’t know with out in trouble showed he was doing it right. Then Chad took it  a step further.

This is Me  has grown in size to a full band. Chad took members of other bands in the Indy region to create what I believe is one of the best bands out of Indy. With Andy Heck on drums, Jari Nation on guitar, Dylan James on synth/keys, and Carter Seaton on bass, This is Me hits harder than every before with the same musicality of just Chad. All the members have pushed this band to untold regions of music and are going to go even further.

Anyone into great pop-punk/punk-rock music should check out This is Me. I highly recommend you listen to there music.

New Single

The local pop-punk-core band Don't Call it a Comeback is releasing their first single, Run Forest Run, later this week. They have been gone for a while but now their back. Don't Call it a Comeback brings high school band to a whole new level. Their style is shown through their melodic vocal lines, poppy synth lines, and hard hitting breakdowns. Looking at these normal loser kids from three different high school you wouldn't see much, but when they start to play their skills come through. Sounding like a well know band that you just want to listen to all the time, you are drawn in by the catchy lyrics mixed with amazing beats and music. Called the best thing out of Indy by the Minnesota band Take Cover. They are working their way up to being a giant thing.

Make sure to stay soon and check out the first official single from Don't Call it a Comeback.
We will have a link right when it comes out.
