Chase Cohl has announced her Dear Dear EP will drop on March 19, 2021. Along with the news, Cohl has made the track and Gemma Warren video for lead single “Take It Like A Man.” The video and all four-songs on the EP pay homage to ‘60s girl group The Ronettes, The Shirelles, Darlene Love and The Crystals. The track and video come a week after the debut of BESA, Cohl’s latest fashion endeavor small collection of high-end cashmere headscarves produced in small, ethically-made quantities. The first run sold out in less than 24 hours, and the second batch is available for pre-order HERE.

Cohl, co-wrote Dear Dear: Volume I with keyboardist/songwriter Barry Goldberg (Bob Dylan, Rod Stewart, Ray Charles, Gladys Knight). Joined by producer Loren Humphrey (The Last Shadow Puppets, Guards, Willowz), Chase discovered Valentine Studios in Los Angeles. A true “time capsule,” it served as the site for seminal recordings by The Beach Boys and Elvis before closing its doors in the late sixties before recently reopening – proving to be perfect for her vintage sound. Other collbarotors on the EP include Tyler Parkford (Mini Mansions), Benji Lysaght (Father John Misty, Beck), Rodrigo Amarante (Little Joy), James Richardson (MGMT), Benjamin Booker, and more.

Born to a mother (featured at 18 years old on the Dear Dear: Volume 1 Album Cover) and father deeply immersed in both the ethos and business of music, Cohl spent much of her youth on the road with the Rolling Stones, citing Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood as her “style icons” to this day. She quietly picked up piano before eventually moving on to guitar and banjo during her college days as a poetry major in New York City where she devoured the works of Jerome Rothenberg, Henry Miller, Arthur Rimbaud, and others.

Simultaneously, she drew on a lifelong passion for sewing and unassumingly crafted the debut collection of LittleDoe’s headpieces in 2009. She sold her first to none other than Fergie following a chance encounter in an NYC restaurant. In the midst of presciently building Littledoe into a Vogue-endorsed early progenitor of the modern Boho movement sported by Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, the characters of Schitt’s Creek and other fashion icons, she penned countless songs.
