Chad Richard (pronounced REE-shard) is a native of the Sabine River bottom, where the river merges Louisiana with Texas’ soil as it winds along.  Steeped in the mingling influences of the region, Richard’s songwriting and musical sensibilities fuse Cajun, Texas swing, country and blues styles into an effortlessly born offspring of each side of the river.

Chad doesn’t ever have to insist on himself – His completely unique Lousiana-Texas-Soul-Country voice grabs the listener, and in just a few minutes, everyone who hears him likes him,

and feels like they know something about him.  He sings about lives like ours, and after knowing him a few years, I believe he’s incapable of artifice of any kind. He’s as real as real gets.  He is a gentleman and a great hang.  He’s a great storyteller, a gifted songwriter and a treasured friend to many.  I’m grateful to know him, to get to hear his new songs, and to have worked with him on this record.  I always look forward to the next time we hang, play songs, And have fun.”
