Chance Motta was born in Seattle, WA in 1988. He began playing any instrument he could find at the age of 13. Starting off with a taste for heavy and fast music: such as bands like Greenday, Rancid, Anti-Flag, and other rock bands. Chance then saved up for a guitar; and jammed with friends in a punk band. He taught himself to play guitar, bass, drums and keyboard. He also began messing around with home-computer recording, learning to layer instruments together for different sounds. He then made some industrial songs for fun. Over time, through life changes, he grew to love the acoustic guitar. For him, the acoustic guitar has a feeling of freedom and independence - not needing a full band to sound complete. Chance Motta began writing some acoustic songs at the age of 16. It was at this age that he eventually started playing them at a local coffee house; and continued playing for fun for the next two years. In 2007, Chance experienced another set of changes in life as he began moving around the country. It was also around this time that Chance started to play a lot of online shows on “Second-Life”. This shift in venue started gaining him a small fan base and with it, the drive to do even more with music. Through the years his influences have grown to include bands in genres of Punk, Metal, Goth, Classic Rock, Emo, and even some Country. In December of 2008, Chance Motta flew to Greensville, IL, to record his first fully-produced album "Whispering Shadows", that combines his wide array of influences with a creative production style. As well as being a musician Chance Motta spends his spare time writing poetry and stories publishing his first poetry book in 12th grade. He believes music should be a passion and evoke an emotion causing the audience to feel something, writing songs from his own pain and joy with a sometimes dark lyrical style. In October of 2011 Chance also took his passion for music one step further and began a degree for music production at Full Sail University, which he completed in June 2014.
