Last month, Chase & Status returned to the limelight unveiling their hard-hitting and trailblazing single ‘When It Rains’ feat. BackRoad Gee, complete with a Jack McMullen starring, Hector Dockrill-directed cinematic visual. Today, the duo is back with new single ‘Don’t Be Scared,’ – a heavy-hitting and recognizably brilliant dose of true Chase and Status energy that landed alongside an incredible fan-filled rave video, filmed at an exclusive invite-only rave that was orchestrated by the incredible Crowns & Owls earlier this year.
Premiered by Zane Lowe, on Apple Music, Will and Saul shared about ‘Don’t Be Scared’ – “With the vocals first recorded in 2010 we knew we had to make this work someday and it all came together for this record. It kicks off our album with raw, tribal energy & Takura shines as ever.”
For trailblazers Chase & Status, the story is cyclical – a constant process of regeneration and refinement that comes full circle. Everything that came before, from their inception point to now, has brought them back to their essence, and these new singles illustrate this perfectly. Landing in the wake of their critically acclaimed specialist album ‘Rtrn II Jungle,’ and the more recent news of their headlining Parklife Festival this Summer, Chase & Status’s musical return is highly anticipated. After a series of teasers were published on their social media, the duo directed their fans to whatcamebefore.net, unveiling a plethora of forthcoming Summer festival dates.
