  • Bio

    Chapa, a Los Angeles-based musical collective, represents the fusion of intelligent and individualistic talents into a collective that explores the less-worn paths of music, discovering new sounds and aural ideas for the public’s consumption. Chapa’s music has been called a “beautifully blended mixture of classical instrumentation, modern grooves, and timeless stories” and is, according to member Russell Chapa, most succinctly summed up as “orchestral folk.” “Music is something that makes you feel jovial, warm, sad, hopeful, vibrant, understood and loved all at once,” Chapa says, describing his passion for creating evocative, fresh sounds that defy convention. In regard to the group’s experimentation, he offers this thought: “Play the music that you love to play.” It’s a simple secret, he believes, to creating music that sets itself apart and offers something exciting for a jaded listening community. And to keep things fun, he shares this advice: “Treat life with a smile.”
