Chase Bryant (born Chase Yaklin[3] on October 9, 1993) is an American singer and songwriter. Bryant is a family name shared by his grandfather, Jimmy Bryant, who performed with Roy Orbison and Waylon Jennings.

In early 2015 Bryant's debut single, "Take It On Back", became a top 10 single on the Country Airplay chart, which is published weekly by Billboard. Bryant co-wrote and co-produced his debut EP, featuring "Take It On Back", and "Little Bit of You" which came out on September 23, 2014 on Red Bow Records.

Bryant is an acclaimed guitarist with a unique guitar playing style, as he is left-handed but plays a right-handed guitar upside-down.[4]

In August 2013, Bryant signed with Red Bow Records, a division of Broken Bow Records.[5][6] A year later, he released his debut single "Take It On Back", which has charted in the top 10 of Billboard's Country Airplay chart. The EP album's second single, "Little Bit of You" released to country radio in March 30, 2015.

Bryant began touring with Brantley Gilbert in early 2015. After that Bryant was one of two opening acts, along with Billy Currington, on Tim McGraw's 2015 Shotgun Rider Tour.[7]
