In the summer of 2006 Alex Thoele and Jon Pickett met while playing guitars around a campfire high on a mountaintop in Estes Park CO. The two have been entertaining and writing music since. In 2010 they were joined by mandolin player and fellow midwesterner Jarett Mason. The newest addition to the band as of December 2018 is Chris “C-Bob” Elliot on banjo and vocals. Chain Station is a 4-piece high-energy get ‘em out on the dance floor string band from Denver Colorado. Their music is well-steeped in Americana roots with vocal harmonies that are high lonesome and tight. Their picking ranges from lightning-fast to mountain mellow. They are a bluegrass band that would satisfy a picky old-timer and delight fans of newgrass a delicate balance indeed. They've become known for winning over crowds with creative fun original songs that flow from the mountains through them and right back to you. Pure Mountain Music! It's obvious these guys love what they do engaging their growing fan base with energy and stage antics that guarantee one hell of a night out. The band’s highly anticipated new album “Backroads” went public May 11 2019. The album “Where I want To Be” was released October 2016. In 2015 a live album “Chain Up Volume 1” had a limited release and their debut studio album “Dancin’ With the Law” hit the scene in 2013. Chain Station has directly supported bands such as The Del McCoury Band The Travelin’ McCourys The Devil Makes Three Todd Snider Sierra Hull Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen Fruition Trout Steak Revival The Railsplitters Lil’ Smokies Hot Buttered Rum Deadphish Orchestra and many more. This band has been living life through music and adventures together for eight years. Relentless gigging in and around their home state of Colorado and the midwest and Canada has made this band of brothers one of the tightest most professional ragtag pack of muppets on the scene today.
