NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- River House Artists / Sony Music Nashville duo Southerland releases its debut EP, Boot Up, today. The seven-song EP showcases Southerland’ s innate ability to mix timeless country harmonies over modern production from Greg Bates, showcasing the true duo’s nostalgic yet current sound. Listen here.
"We could not be more proud of the seven songs on this EP," shares Southerland. "When then pandemic hit, we took the opportunity to write and record music that truly tells the story of who we are as a duo. These songs are such an authentic picture into who we are and the kind of music that influenced us."
In tandem with their debut EP, Southerland releases a music video for the title track “Boot Up,” available everywhere today.
The video highlights the working class - secretaries, military personnel, farmers, bartenders and construction workers- “booting up” for their daily shift. In case you missed it, yesterday the duo premiered a full-band performance of the entire seven song EP via livestream on Facebook, straight from The Nashville Palace.
This summer, the duo comprised of Matt Chase and Chris Rogers, have opened shows for Mitchell Tenpenny and Jon Langston and will join Michael Ray in June. More dates will be announced soon, bringing their all-new music to fans throughout the country. The singer/songwriters have shared the stage with Luke Combs, Lauren Alaina, Eli Young Band, Brantley Gilbert, Montgomery Gentry, Craig Morgan, Darius Rucker, Morgan Wallen and many more.

ABOUT SOUTHERLAND:
Everyone saw the duo's potential in Charleston, South Carolina native Matt Chase and small-town Washington, Georgia’s Chris Rogers before they saw it themselves. Before morphing into the musical outfit now known as Southerland, the two had been playing college towns and dive bars together for three years. They met in 2016 through mutual friend Ray Fulcher during a songwriting session and their musical compatibility is what has kept the two working and playing together ever since. They have developed, quite naturally, into a duo that relies heavily on lyrical content, while melodically blending classic and pop country. The two create music that takes the storytelling of traditional country music and gives it a relatable, modern country feel.
