The Tullamore lads are ready to take on the world
When Ro , Bee and Teddy C met in secondary school, their focus was to win a competition. The three Tullamore lads were put together by their music teacher for a local music competition. They laugh as they tell VIP Magazine that they ultimately lost the thing.
Chasing Abbey first entered the music scene in 2017 with their self-released single That Good Thing winning the Irish Choice Music Award for Song of the Year in 2018. Their EP, The Odyssey Project, appeared at number one in the Irish Charts upon its release and they even made waves over in the States.
We played Gnarls Barkley Crazy and we did that competition and we didn’t win. So that was that. But we stayed together and we kept playing music together. We went through a few different genres, we started playing folk and then we were trying to do a bit more electronic music and then it turned into pop. It eventually progressed to electronic dance music because we decided to get the proper software and the whole studio set up. We learned how to use Ableton and we went from there.
You were put together as a trio in school, but when did you realise that you could go all the way as a band?All three of us were always involved in music because of our families growing up. But I don’t think we really thought we could do music as a job until we got the whole studio set up. I think we saw the potential there. We had a lot of time to experiment with stuff there. We were starting to get good results there and we thought maybe we could get a proper single out and see how it goes.
