Chance Pena at Crystal Ballroom

Born and raised in East Texas, Chance Peña is a 25-year-old artist, songwriter, and producer whose music bridges traditional storytelling with modern sonic influences. After signing with Secret Road Music Publishing at 17, he quickly gained traction with early placements like ‘Up, Up & Away’ in the film Five Feet Apart and later earned a Grammy nomination for co-writing John Legend’s song ‘Conversations in the Dark.’ Peña has since released three EPs, numerous singles, and his 2024 debut album Ever-Shifting, Continual Blossoming, amassing over a billion Spotify streams to date and selling out tours across the US, UK, and Europe. He’s collaborated with artists across various genres, from working with KYGO and Julia Michels on 2024’s ‘Louder,’ to joining country-rock singer/songwriter Sam Barber for the duet ‘Better Than the Floor.’
