By: Staff –

Emerging Vancouver-based alt-rock band Chase The Bear are back with their thrilling new video for “Underwater.” Watch it exclusively via Aesthetic Magazine below.

Directed by Rock Is Dead Records co-founder Dave Benedict, the music video for “Underwater” was filmed at Vancouver’s iconic Hollywood Theatre, a gorgeous 1920’s-style heritage building where the band played their first local show back following the pandemic shut-down.

“For our first official video, we aimed to capture the energy of our live performance,” says Chase The Bear bassist Braedan Royer. “We also found it amusing to include the shots of Troy singing while submerged in water to capture the intense energy of the song.”

Originally hailing from the wild wilderness of Fort St. John, BC, Chase The Bear includes vocalist Troy Gilmore, guitarists Leo Gilmore and Jordan Philips, drummer Connor Brooks, keyboardist Kevin Parker and bassist Braedan Royer. The group mixes catchy hooks, roaring electric guitars, and hard-hitting rhythms inspired by classic rock with soul and pop influences. The act has performed over one hundred shows, including a sold-out show opening for The Trews at Vancouver’s iconic Commodore Ballroom.
