Raised on the plains of Oklahoma, Chad Trout was born in country music ,and when only six years old, began singing in his father's ensemble, The Desert Okie Band. Growing up performing at places like the Tulsa State Fair, Route 66 Theater, V. F. W. Clubs, Cains Ballroom, The Oklahoma Opry and much more. At the ripe age of twelve he made his first television appearance and, by the time he was seventeen, had made his mark in his home town, by having his own radio show on Oklahoma's KREK,and performing on Green Country's KTUL Channel 8 (Good Morning Oklahoma). After seeing Chad perform to a standing ovation at the Muskogee Civic Center, Grand Ole Opry star the late Del Reeves took Chad to Nashville and recorded demo's that led to a developmental recording deal with Mercury Records. Although originally brought to Nashville as a country prodigy, Chad rebelled against his southern roots and aimed his sights on blues, pop, and rock songwriting. Chad's brother, Travis, followed the lead, transforming 360 degrees in Genres. Together they hit the club circuit and found great success. Over the past years, they have been critically aclaimed as one of the best local acts in Nashville. The crowds grew, the word spread, and as time approached, AOL's project, digitalcity.com, named them a hitpick and gave them a glowing reviews. Trout has shared the stage with such legends as Mark Wills, John Berry, Lisa Brokop, Keith Urban, Terry Clark, Bellamy Brothers, Del Reeves, Tammy Wynette, Jeanie Sealy, Sammy Smith, The Texans, and the Texas Playboys, and countless others. "Making music, and entertaining people is a love that I was born with, because I have been doing it all my life. I began performing in public at a very early age. Thanks to my dad, I had the opportunity to perform in bands, and shows all across the southern region. He eventually " stuck me out front", and encouraged me to pursue a career in music. I became part of the band when I was six. I moved to music city when I was 18, and have been working on all kinds of projects from country to pop/rock. Now days, I work with my brother Travis Trout,writing songs, and performing live. Travis over the years became not only my partner in music, but a wonderful producer, musician, songwriter, and engineer to work with. Through the wisdom of my family, and many great friends, I have been blessed with a wonderful journey, that I call my life! These inspirations flow through me, and take the form of music. My current project " Soul Repair" has been a spiritual journey for me, and I invite you to listen, and find a bit of yourself in it!"
