Hey this is the band I was tellin you about Chillset!!! You need to book them! SPECIAL FEATURES ABOUT BOSTONNIGHTLIFE. TV GUEST LIST Chillset CD release party @ the Hard Rock Cafe, Boston 6/23/2008 8:10:07 PM By: Rachel Sutton
Scott Fovel, the lead singer, jumps into the fans arms after a song. Chillset originated in Medway, Massachusetts, but Saturday night they sold out the Hard Rock Café in Boston to celebrate their CD release. Scott, Justin, and Dan grew up together and said they have been switching in and out of different bands for some time now. Finally, five years ago, they stuck together and created what is known all over the Northeast today as Chillset. “We wanted to do something different,” Justin told me. They set out to create an acoustic vibe with rock and reggae influences that would catch the ear of both genres. With songs like “Broken Record” and “95” they do just that. However they do branch off and during the show they covered a sublime song and, my personal favorite, the Will Farrell melody.
Beyond their sound and their style there is something special about Chillset and that is their performance. The audience doesn’t attended a Chillset show and just tap their feet. The crowd was dancing and jamming out with beers raised the entire time. “It’s the energy we give on stage. We have fun and that vibe is captured by the audience,” Scott informed me when I asked what it was that made that crowd do what they do. The energy these guys give off was shocking. It was as if they weren’t just performing the songs but becoming part of the audience as well. Scott Fovel, the lead singer, never stood still while performing. “We just have a great time together on stage,” he said.
If I had to describe Chillset in one word, I would have to say fun. Chillset doesn’t just play a show, they put on a show. Not only have they created a great band, that is set to go on an upcoming tour, they are also cool guys and have earned a pretty big following.
