Artist Interviews Chad Valley

Oxford's Hugo Manuel is Chad Valley. Before his first headlining Chicago show at Schubas, he sat down with CHIRP's Dylan Peterson to talk about why indie kids are getting over pretention and getting into R&B, when solo artists turn into collaborators (and vice versa), and how a bedroom pop guy can get to know more girls.

Chad Valley is playing at Schubas with Chandeliers and Ghost Beach on Sunday, April 21st. 'Like' CHIRP on facebook this week for a chance to win a pair of tickets to the show!
