Behind the Hedges: ‘Life in the Burbs’ by The Dream Chasers

‘Life in the Burbs’ by The Dream Chasers With ‘Life in the Burbs,’ Bridgette and Peter (aka The Dream Chasers) unfold the full range of their artistic creation. They take us on a journey through the suburbs, which includes not only the visible hedges and houses but also the hidden longings and dreams of their inhabitants. With a mix of melancholic reflection and life-affirming euphoria, they paint a multi-layered portrait. The musical accompaniment is as diverse as the emotions of the residents. From indie pop melodies that capture the quiet of a Sunday morning to powerful indie rock chords that reveal the hidden wildness behind the manicured facades, The Dream Chasers offer a soundtrack that both soothes and challenges the listener. The catchy riff in ‘Life in the Burbs’ acts as a musical guide that immediately captivates the listeners and takes them on an acoustic journey through the complex emotions of suburban life. It is the artistry with which this riff captures the essence

"Sea" by Said Sara

Said Sara

...is a genuine extension of Benson’s essence. As a child of the 70’s, he grew up on the singer-songwriters of that era of emergence: Baez, Stevens, Croce, Taylor, Buckingham, Mitchell. 
But Benson was/is a metalhead and a punk (yes, both) in the 80s, 90s and beyond. In 2008, he joined crust punk-turned death metal warhorse Acephalix, of which he remains the drummer. He also currently sits behind the kit for post-hardcore vs. electronic noise denomination Plaguestate.

A year ago you released "Bleedways", now you are back with "Sea", did you work on new material in the last 12 month or was it simply a break concerning music?

I literally worked on Sea for a full year! I poured everything into it.


What's the story behind your song "Sea", what was your inspiration, respectively ?

I saw a woman in a laundromat and wrote it about her. Where can relief be found when one works to serve others all day and night?


What's in your opinion the most time intensive part being an indie artist?

The promo! It's ruthless. Hearing opinions on your work from those with no background knowledge can be brutal -- though there are benefits to unbiased opinions.


Who would you most like to collaborate with?

Laura Viers


What are your "All time Top 3 Songs", right now, in this second?

Coldplay - Charlie Brown,
Morbid Angel - Abominations,
The Distillers - Die on a Rope.


What’s next for you?

I'm about to give it all over to Acephalix, my band of 14 years. Our new album drops in the fall and we have several shows coming up. Said Sara takes a back seat, though I'm ready to gig!
