Charles “Chaz” Langley born in Washington D.C., he now lives in New York. Chaz began honing his talent for singing, dancing and acting at the Governor’s Magnet School for the Arts in Virginia with friend Marcus Bell. Since then he has begun his journey into the world of Live Stage, Background vocals, demos, jingles and eventually performing all over the world. He’s had the opportunity to entertain in various styles of music from Musical theatre, R&B, Pop, Gospel and Classical as well. It was the natural progression of R&B music that held his attention and still becomes prevalent in most of his music. Since moving to Nashville 10 years ago, Chaz has had many opportunities to work with various publishing and record companies singing in different styles to strengthen him vocally. He's been sited and heard singing with artists such as Michael McDonald, Larry Carlton, Michael English, Shirley Ceasar, Clay Crosse, Darwin Hobbs, Tabitha Fair, Lucy Woodward, Bekka Bramlett, Chris Willis and up and coming R&B artist Candace Jones. Over the past 5 years in addition to his singing, Chaz has been sharpening his skills at the art of songwriting. “I write the kind of songs that are simply Human Relations 101 and the respect and the woman and her many facets. “I love to write songs that stay in your mind. Whether it be with a contagious melody or a lyric that makes you think about life, I love every aspect of song writing.” Now living in New York, Chaz is now looking to use his talents to challenge himself in every way possible in the most talented city in the world!
HERE'S A FEW CLIPS OF SOME LIVE PERFORMANCES... ENJOY!!
"Walk Again"
Chaz Live at Canal Room "What's Your Name" ft. Andy Mac
This is my first collaboration since moving to NY a year ago! This song was inspired by many train rides back and forth to the "city" from my place in Brooklyn! It was purely hypothetical! Enjoy the ride on my "F" train to Fame!!
Thanks for your friendship and supporting my music! Smooth rock/reggae/funk for the thinking and dancing aficionado. Think of Peter Gabriel jamming and partying with Robbie Robertson, Dave Matthews and Jack Johnson in Bob Marley's Hope Road studio. http://www.davesasscer.com
Heya Chaz, thanks for merging our worlds in friendship, man. Smooth musical moves here...velvet and a fine creme liqueur for the soul. Reminds an old dog like me of the high bar set in the 60s and 70s of the Real Rhythm and Blues and the super soul sounds of the masters of the day. Bravo from Minnesota!
Hey, I’m sorry you haven’t heard from me in a while. I was busy finishing my debut album (feat. Take 6, K. Whalum, A. Laboriel, V. Colaiuta, P. Jackson Jr.). And now it’s done! I’ll be in New York next week, so if you have time for coffee or so, let me know!
Greetings from your Swiss brother,
Vlada
