CJW Echo with Chuck Wansley

Native New Yorker Chuck Wansley began his professional singing & drumming career at age 18 traveling worldwide with the youth group Up With People. After several years touring, Chuck returned to the US and performed in New England for many happy years with one of the region's finest R&B groups, Match.

Chuck furthered his career by making the move back to NYC, signing first with Prism Records and then Motown as a founding member of the urban techno group Warp-9, performing live and producing two albums. He also performed live and recorded an album with innovative international performance artist Tomek Lamprecht of Model Citizens.

In time his career led him to Los Angeles where he developed a stellar reputation as a dynamic performer, bandleader and vocalist, conveying a range of music styles. Today he leads his band Chuck Wansley After Hours, performing tunes from the latest contemporary pop and R&B hits to old school Motown, retro-70's, 80's, 90's, American swing and jazz standards, blues and Latin specialty, performed in the poshest venues from Newport Coast, California to the mansions of Newport, Rhode Island, and from Napa to Paris - along with frequent solo appearances in Japan and the Pacific Rim.
