Later on in life, Chance went on to study music and public speaking all throughout his years of schooling — where he was able to craft and hone his skills as a musician up into his teenage years.

Chance moved to Las Vegas and met the members of a small local band called Sic Inside. After managing the band, made up of kids who were fresh out of high school, and a spell playing in many bands in several cities and states as the front man, Chance later decided to focus on his own songs, spending many years in his home studio working on several demos. Upon several occasions, Trahan had passed his demo to a slew of nightclubs, getting them to spin his music and attempting to get nightclub event managers to sign contracts written up by Trahan himself. He used every opportunity that he could to share his demo with anybody who had the chance to get him signed to a label. This resulted in Chance Trahan working with a producer in Prescott Valley, Arizona shortly after moving to Phoenix. Chance has taken the opportunity and time to build his own studio and record label titled Mafia Illuminati.

Chance created his own synthetic style of electronic/acoustic song-writing with heartfelt lyrics, influenced by his own experiences that have came and went throughout his lifetime. In 1998 he self-released his underground album titled “Kataishin” and received critical acclaim from his peers. Chance later released 2 debut singles, “Desinent” and “Howling,” catchy, grunge-driven metal tracks that showcased his powerfully aggressive voice and intimidating guitar riffs. It was then followed in 2010 by “Meant To Bleed,” a dark and intense anthem geared towards government and veteran affairs that was encompassed with such compassion that its intensity is felt by anyone who listens. “Spectre” and its follow-up title-track, “Shadowar,” was released independently from the same underground album. In early 2015, his latest album “Taking Chances” arrived, featuring many brand new acoustic songs about his own tales of love and heartache.
