Hip Chainey is on the scene. Having only launched a solo career a year ago, 2 albums have already been released. This was accomplished at a tremendous pace and with maddening focus, so much so that Chainey’s mind and body simply shut down for a few weeks here very recently. Alive and well however, HC is up and running, writing, and preparing to get back in the studio. “Do it while you’re young and of sound health and ability,” Hip Chainey always says. And so it has been for about 10 years. Chainey has served with 4 different bands and collaborated with several other fellow musicians. He enjoys total creative control at this point but is always open to change. The good thing about being involved in the community of music is that most everybody seems to keep an open mind.
Hip Chainey went solo in 12/2004. It’s been 10 years in the making, this style and these songs. I've played with 4 different bands through the years and been a part of 8 different recording projects. I also have years of live performing experience, not that I'm any good at it.
Yes. I hit the open mic scene here in Vegas and do acoustic shows.
