Chalkin Creative is in full support of the Black Lives Matter movement. We, as a nation, and as a world, must do better. Imagine a world that is conscious of the fact that all people are just different combinations of the same stuff. That’s the world we can build.

We fully support the peaceful protests and justifiable, cathartic expressions of agony coming from our brothers and sisters taking advantage of their right of assembly in the streets.

We must recognize that we are all different, which is what makes this diverse world of ours so beautiful. There is so much magic waiting to be discovered once we accept one another. And when we fight one another, we are fighting ourselves. Because we are one.

Let’s not spend our precious time and resources fighting each other. Let us love one another. Because love is powerful, and, if we can find it in our hearts to love one another, work together, and eliminate hate, we can uncover the mysteries of the universe.

If you have a message to share, if you are a black business owner, or if you feel compelled to speak out, let us know how Chalkin Creative can collaborate with you. We are open to doing this at no cost for the strength of this movement. Let’s show the world how powerful love is. Let’s create positive change. Let’s eliminate racism.

Lastly, if you do not support the BLM movement, please be notified that Chalkin Creative will not do business or be associated in any way with you or your business.

WE MUST DO BETTER.

Together we will. #blacklivesmatter #blm #justiceforgeorgefloyd

What makes a classic quarantine even better? Some good music.

I am about to release the third single "Lover's Blues" from my debut album. I can’t even believe that. It has all been a blur. Time has seemed to fly past and stand still at the same time. This song was written in London on a hazy morning. If you listen closely, you can hear that haziness in the song. Please enjoy this live version of “Lover’s Blues.” I can’t wait to release the album version next Friday Apr 3! Much Love to all. Stay safe. Love each other. That is all.

🎥 Chalkin Creative - The man!

My frenzied mind is racing all around
Like bees inside a swarm

The sky turns black and blue
In the middle of the night
You feel it too
I can’t get it off my mind
Neither can you
This lover's blues
This lover's blues

Live 1 shot take recently filmed in LA with a few very talented musicians .

***"All I've Ever Known" from Hadestown The Musical!***

Hello everyone! Back in December, my life was completely changed when I saw the musical Hadestown with my little brother. Whether it was the fact that it was written by a folk singer-songwriter (Anais Mitchell), or that it follows a female lead at the intersection of love, independence and survival, or that it was an important political and social commentary beneath a beautiful retelling of Greek mythology, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to cover this song "All I've Ever Known," and here it is! Thank you to Ben Wylen for performing the song with me, and Chalkin Creative for recording the video!

Enjoy! Tag Anais Mitchell & Hadestown below! Maybe she will watch it!!

:)

Some of our earliest work. And of course a nice reminder (for all of us) to continue working on meaningful projects.

This is also a nice reminder that we have been in business for over 5 years. That’s FIVE years!

Now here is a shameless plug.

Check out our latest collaboration ! We love any opportunity to work with talented musicians like benwylenofficial .

I spent in a year in London making a record. I decided that this album, and this project in general, is about the music and only the music. This video is a live acoustic version of “People Say” shot in one continuous take. The official version of this song will be the first track off of my upcoming debut album! Enjoy it!

“People Say” February 7, 2020 Pre-Order Now:
http://po.st/peoplesaydownload

This video was filmed and directed by my great friend Charlie Chalkin. He is one of the most creative and thoughtful humans on this earth and I was lucky enough to borrow his brain for this live version of “People Say.” It is Charlie’s immeasurable talent that enabled us to create this video with no edits. Just one take, shot live the whole way through.

Recorded and mixed at Dubway West Studios by Monty www.dubwaywest.com

Special thanks to my Manager/ Psychologist/ Cheerleader/ Right-hand Woman Celina Rollon, Phil Gardner (who smashed the lighting) and Kathryn Paraskevas!
