Patio Sessions ft. Chase Thompson and The Reach

By Bethany Lee, Herald staff writer

Chase Thompson and The Reach perform three acoustic songs and sit down for a quick Q&A during AtomicTown's Patio Sessions. They also play a game of "Chubby Bunny," and you'll want to see who wins!

Chase Thompson (CT), singer, keyboardist
Tyler McMullen (TM), guitar, vocals
Jeremy Wilcox (JW) , guitar

Favorite Candy:
CT:Almond Joy
JW: Look at me. Why don't you say what candy do you not like. Junior Mints
TM: Assorted jelly beans

Favorite Band:
CT: Metric
JW: Smashing Pumpkins
TM: The Fray

Musician he can’t stand:
CT: There's certain types of music that I'm less likely to listen to, let's put it that way
JW: Chase Thompson...j/k
TM: Lil Wayne

Favorite video game:
CT: God of War 2
JW: Command and Conquer
TM: Halo 3

Playstation or Xbox 360?:
CT: That's hard, because a lot of my friends have an Xbox, so I'd get to play with them, but the Playstation 3 has a Blu-Ray and I don't have a Blu-Ray right now. I'd probably go with Xbox because I'd rather interact with other people through X-Box Live.
JW: I want both. I have none.
TM: I would pick the Playstation 3 because I have real friends, I don't have to make friends online.

If you ruled Tri-Cities for a day...:
CT: I would take all of the Tri-City's extra money and bring in the most amazing rock bands and I would just blow our future to have one awesome rock day.
TM: Have a national jet ski day
JW: I'd talk with all the county commissioners and try to get something done!

Check out Chase & The Reach at 8 p.m. this Friday, June 12, 2009 at The Lounge in Richland when they perform with Brazen Layver for FREE. The band will be filming concert footage for their upcoming DVD.
