Chris Lane Born Christopher Eric Lane On November 9 1984 Is An American Country Music Singer And Songwriter. He Has Released One Album As Frontman Of The Chris Lane Band And A Second Album Girl Problems And A Third Album Laps Around The Sun Via Big Loud Records. Lane's Signature Is The Falsetto. In Lane's Hands Mixing Those Earth-Shattering High Notes With Banjo Plucks And A Danceable Beat Whether That Dancing Is Done In Cowboy Boots Or Nike Sneakers Has Never Felt More Natural Or So Unique. He May Have Some Girl Problems As The Title Of His Forthcoming Debut Album Suggests But He Has No Problem At All Weaving A Fresh Sound That Both Thrills Country Fans And Encourages Pop Faithfuls To Dip A Toe Into His Side Of The Mason-Dixon. After Touring With Dustin Lynch Kelsea Ballerini And Rascal Flatts Lane Has Been Making A Name For Himself As One Of The Genre's Most Groundbreaking New Stars His First Single "Fix " Is Bound For The Top Of The Country Radio Charts And Just Passed Both 20 Million Streams On Spotify And Over 3.5 Million Views On Vevo Making Waves For How Effortlessly It Blends Progressive Pop And That Sultry Falsetto With His Country Roots. It's A Record-Breaker Too The Song Has Accumulated The Most First Week Single Adds From A Debut Male Artist In Country Aircheck History All While Drawing Praise From The Likes Of Selena Gomez Lucy Hale Daughtry And More. Now Lane's Ready To Share Girl Problems With The World His Much-Anticipated Debut LP Produced By Joey Moi Florida Georgia Line Jake Owen To Be Released By Big Loud Records On August 5th. Originally From North Carolina But Now Residing In Nashville Lane Once Thought His Life Was Heading In An Entirely Different Direction An Ace Athlete He Played Football And Baseball Until An Injury Sidelined Him Permanently. Looking For An Outlet He Turned To The Guitar – He'd Always Loved Music Growing Up And Listened To Everything From Garth Brooks And Usher To Justin Timberlake – And It Quickly Turned From A Hobby Into A Downright Passion. He Started Playing In A Cover Band And Became A Must-See Act In Town All While Starting To Write His Own Songs A Talent That Came Unexpectedly Easily. "Once I Got A Taste Of What It Was Like To Be On Stage " Says Lane "and More And More People Came Out To The Shows I Thought 'well I Should Try And Write My Own Music.' I Sat Down And Wrote Twelve Songs. After That It Instantly Felt Like Music Was What I Truly Was Supposed To Be Doing. I Discovered A Passion I Never Thought I Could Have." Soon Nashville Came Calling And It Wasn't Before Long That He Found Himself Working With Moi Who Was Instantly Drawn To His Cutting-Edge Originality And Ability To Transcend Genres. One Day In The Studio Lane Was Singing An Usher Song To Himself While Moi Was Working Behind The Controls – Including All Of The High Falsetto Notes That Are Impossible For Most To Even Approach. And Suddenly A Light Bulb Went Off They Realized They Could Integrate Those Vocal Abilities Into Lane's Music In Way That Country Had Never Quite Done Before. "I'm So Glad We Discovered That " Says Lane. "It's Out Of The Box For Country Music And That's How I Like To Be." Once Lane Felt Free To Unleash Those Killer Vocals Everything Fell Into Place It Was The Thread That Laced Together His Diverse Pop And Country Influences And "Fix " Written By Sarah Buxton Jesse Frasure And Abe Stoklasa Was The First Piece Of That Puzzle And Also The Title Of His Debut EP . Girl Problems – Named As An Ode Not Only To The Difficulties Of Romance But The Beauty Of Learning From Missteps And Mistakes - Takes The Ride One Step Further Pushing Even More Boundaries Packing More Surprises And Most Of All Always Remembering To Make People Dance Or Sing Along. From The Smooth R&B Vibe Of "Who's It Gonna Be" That Absolutely Smashes With Its Infectious Eighties-Pop Infused Chorus To The Twang Disco Of "All The Time" To The Mid-Tempo "For Her " Which Lane Describes As His "Backstreet Boy" Moment – If The Backstreet Boys Played A Little Banjo – It's A Contemporary Ride From One Exciting Corner Of The Genre To The Next Reinventing Country With Every Octave. "I Love What Florida Georgia Line Is Doing And What Sam Hunt Has Done " Says Lane. "They Have Created Something That Was Unique To Country That Nobody Else Had Tried. That's How I Strive To Create Music Too. To Infuse So Many Different Aspects And Influences Into One Unique Sound That Always Pushes Forward." Florida Georgia Line In Fact Has Been A Mentor Of Sorts To Lane – They Recognized His Talent Early On And Took Him On The Road Before Anyone Barely Knew His Name. It Was A Good Gamble – Audiences Loved His High-Energy Captivating Performances And Other Artists Like Rascal Flatts Snatched Him Up As A Tourmate Too. Tireless On The Road And Always On All Cylinders At Every Show Lane Attributes His Work Ethic To His Years As An Athlete. "I Guess I've Gone From Playing Baseball In Stadiums To Singing In Stadiums " Lane Laughs. Either Way He's Still Hitting Soaring Homeruns.
