VIMIC Frontman KALEN CHASE Releases Music Video For ‘Let Them Come’ Solo Single
VIMIC frontman Kalen Chase has released the official music video for his new solo single, “Let Them Come”. Kalen stated about the track: “‘Let Them Come’ started last year in Nashville when I was tinkering around on my guitar. I tuned my guitar down really low until I got this cello-like sound and my brother Nick Morris — whom I collaborate with a lot — went, ‘What is that?’ to which I responded, ‘I don’t know, but I think it’s good…’ So, the riff for ‘Let Them Come’ happened first, and immediately I thought it had to have a chant. I started humming and eventually that turned into ‘say bye bye to the old ways, old ways.’ The entire song came from this and we pieced it together like Frankenstein. ̶...
