Chet and the Renegade began in January of 2022 in the deep cornfields of Kokomo, Indiana. Chet spent his entire life living and loving the realities of the Midwest. After many life changes, he began to write more than he had before and felt the need to share the stories. From there, the renegade was born.

Chet and the Renegade are scheduled to release their debut album in July 2024. The album tells the stories of dreamers of the midwest. Through biblical allegory and favorite vacation spots, the album tells the story of Chet’s 20s and everything that life brought him. Through stories of joy, pain and heartache, Chet tells the story that relates to every midwestern ambition’s. To strive for the dreams and prove what tomorrow will bring. Through tonal landscapes like Sam Fender, Gang of Youths, and Tom Petty, the Renegade invites everyone to join in what it looks like to be human.
