Before Cars is a pop/rock band that features the original songs of Chad Channing, the former drummer of the band Nirvana, most known for his work on the album Bleach. Chad’s songs are an eclectic mix of styles ranging both lyrically and musically from quirky and light-hearted to deep and introspective. Unlike the more straight ahead hard rock driven Walk Back release in 2009, the band has evolved to more of an acoustic guitar based style on their latest album, reflecting the direction the band has gone with their live performances. Some of Chad’s musical Influences are the Young Marble Giants, early David Bowie and obscure 60’s and 70’s hits such as “Like Hope for Happiness” by the Soft Machine.
