Chantelle Tibbs was born in the small town of Vineland, New Jersey. She would pick okra with her grandparents and visit Cow Town on weekends with her family. Around the age of 14 she was placed in a girl's R&B group that was to be signed by University records. She was kicked out of the group because she was too tall. "The music was great but it just didn't feel like me." When she moved to San Francisco, California at age 17, she found a connection to Bluegrass, Americana music. "It reminded me of long car rides with my dad in New Jersey." Fusing the Indie Rock of her current musical findings along with the sounds from her youth she and Eric Dudinsky of Mira Records came together to produce "Long Time Running"."She is your meat and potatoes in a world of GMO's". Chantelle's music has been selected for "The Last Alley cat" and the "All the Others Were Practice" soundtracks. The album "Long Time Running" will be released January of 2017.
