Details:
Chime is a 5 piece powerhouse, brought together by each member's mutual intentions. Their music is dynamic and could be classified as "mystical folk-rock." They have played at venues throughout the southeast USA, attracting a strong fan base, whose demand for recordings brought forth 2 CD's, "Starrain" and "Between Dreams," released 1 year apart. Chime has organized and played benefits ranging from environmental and political issues to people in need. Chime's full effort to reach out to their audience has caught the attention of newspapers, colleges, and local radio stations, where they have played live on-air and received excellent reviews from critics and listeners.

Chime has been compared to bands such as The Cranberries, Loreena McKennitt, Sheila Chandra, Cocteau Twins, Kate Bush and Tori Amos, yet they are praised for their all-original style. Chime brings Celtic, Eastern and higher consciousness sounds to an upbeat rock format, often times channeling and improvising their material, making each Chime performance completely unique.
