Downey Chase is the solo folk project of American songwriter Nic Lussier.
Influenced by the wilderness of the Colorado mountains, his music evokes the serene landscapes of Gregory Alan Isakov as well as the raw intimacy and delicate guitar playing of Adrianne Lenker. With a voice that consciously embraces vulnerability, Nic writes songs imbued with nature, reflection, and a constant search.
Before creating Downey Chase, Nic toured extensively as a member of the indie rock band The Brazen Youth , sharing the stage with artists such as Flipturn, Richy Mitch & the Coal Miners , and Melt . In 2024, he released his debut album—a collection of songs that captures both the tranquility and the restlessness at the heart of his songwriting. Now, he brings these tracks to European stages for the first time, carving out his own niche in the contemporary folk scene.
