Chancy DeAnne Preserves the Essence of Country in Debut Self-Titled EP

Taking the country music scene by the horns is a singer-songwriter and rising country music star Chancy DeAnne with her powerful 5-track debut EP titled Chancy DeAnne.

The passionate country artist is praised as a dynamic voice in the music industry, landing over 2k monthly listeners on Spotify with only two singles under her belt. As she continues to weave personal tales of perseverance into her music, Chancy is undoubtedly leaving her mark on listeners far and wide.

The momentum continues for the tenacious young artist as she releases her debut self-titled EP, Chancy DeAnne. The project touches on themes of strength and determination, not to mention her personal wins and losses transformed into cathartic anthems for maximum impact. It's a comprehensive project that anyone can find a piece of themselves in.

Hitting play on the first track, "A Place To Fall Apart," the song opens with soothing country instrumentals while Chancy DeAnne's velvety vocals depict personal, heartfelt scenes of past love that eventually turned to loss. As we reach the cathartic hook, Chancy lets us know that when her world's crashing down before her, all she's looking for is "A Place To Fall Apart." It's a compelling intro track that perfectly sets the tone for the following tracks.

Jumping into track two, "Fuck Country Music," a gentle and dreamy instrumental floats through the speakers while Chancy DeAnne dives into her first verse. As she discusses how modern country music has gone south and hearing it play over radio airwaves, she dives into a powerful hook that emphasizes the lack of soul, culture, and American red-white-and-blue pride in today's country tunes. It's a wake-up call to preserve this precious genre, and Chancy DeAnne is doing exactly that.

Leaning into track number three, "Don't Tell Motel," we're greeted with a tender acoustic guitar alongside Chancy DeAnne's storytelling lyrics that depict the many souls who stop by the "Don't Tell Motel" across town. It's a song that celebrates the state of feeling lost, sad, and washing away those sorrows with a drink at the motel bar. Because if we can't celebrate those walls that put up with our suffering, what can we celebrate? It's a humble, chilling listening experience with a sense of community that anyone will appreciate.

Ramping up the energy is the EP's fourth track, "Call Me Country," kicking off with a tight rhythm guitar and upbeat drums alongside Chancy DeAnne's vibrant vocal performance. As she dives into various country scenes with bottles and holsters galore, she embraces her country roots and lets the world know that she's more than a lady; she's more than a friend—she's everything country music is supposed to be. And she's wearing that on her sleeve with pride throughout this entire banger, celebrating what's left of the original genre and preserving it with all her might.

Reaching the last song on the EP, "Where The Hell'd My Country Go," Chancy DeAnne closes the project with a song that questions where her nation has gone. With more concrete and less pastures and dirt than ever, she's asking the question we're all wondering: is America losing its culture? If anything, it's songs like these that help maintain it. Chancy DeAnne is no stranger to country culture, and this outro song perfectly celebrates it while pushing fellow Americans to do the same. It's a high-energy, infectious anthem that's ready to take the nation by storm.

All in all, Chancy DeAnne does an impressive job highlighting tales of strength, determination, and an undying love for country culture in her debut EP, Chancy DeAnne. It's a prime example of how not all is lost in modern-day country music. Hear it yourself and find Chancy DeAnne on all digital streaming platforms.

Welcome to Buzz, Chancy! We love the raw energy and authentic feel of your self-titled EP, Chancy DeAnne. What inspired you to create this powerful debut project?

It’s something I have always wanted to do. Music has been a huge part of my life and my Appalachian heritage. When it was brought to my attention as an option to create the EP, I would have never passed it up.

Your EP Chancy DeAnne touches on themes of preserving traditional country music. How do you balance honoring the genre's roots while making it relevant for today's listeners?

There are so many fans of traditional country music today. As well as I love today’s country. I think adding my roots and my twang to today’s sound was the perfect combo.

Can you tell us about your songwriting process for the Chancy DeAnne EP? How did you choose which stories and experiences to share?

A place to fall apart was a heartbreak I felt in my soul. I had to do Don’t tell motel when I heard it. There’s a little place back home that reminds me of it. Call Me Country describes me to a T. Where the Hell my country went? Makes me think of how all the agricultural land is being replaced with subdivisions. Of course, F country music is a no-brainer.

The track "Fuck Country Music" from Chancy DeAnne is bold and, quite frankly, brilliant. What message did you want to convey with this song?

We handed off the keys, and they just blew it and fucked country music. To me, this song means that not only music but life in general isn’t the same anymore. Things change for sure.

Your Chancy DeAnne EP covers a range of emotions and experiences. Which song on the project do you feel best represents you as an artist, and why?

Don’t tell motel shows my Appalachian twang and roots. The way I pronounce my words as I tell the story of that song is like speaking to me in person, and I’m proud of that.
