Chasing Twisters Electronic Press Kit
A bold, feel-good modern country band bringing high energy storytelling and UK soul to the stage.
<200 word Bio
Chasing Twisters are a five-piece British country band bringing storm sized
energy and heartfelt storytelling to stages across the UK. Based around
Stoke on Trent, the band formed in 2021 when songwriters Craig Chapman
and Laura Holden joined forces, determined to create original country music
with a distinctly UK twist.
With a sound that fuses Nashville flair and Midlands grit, Chasing Twisters
deliver foot stomping anthems, catchy singalong hooks, and the kind of high
energy performances that fill dance floors. Their debut album Better In A Hat
captures that full band feel - driving guitars, rich harmonies, keys, fiddle, and
plenty of heart - all wrapped in songs about love, life, and laughter.
Made up of a teacher, a farmer, two army vets, and a truck driver, this is a band grounded in real life, real stories, and genuine passion for music. They’ve
played over 80 shows in just three years, from the UKCountryRadio.com
Awards to The British Motor Show and Deva Fest, steadily earning a
reputation for their originality, warmth, and down to earth charm.
