What's the Chad Rager 3?
The drumslinger Chad Rager has created lots of excitement when he stepped outside his national recording band the Chad Rager Groove and created the Chad Rager 3 . The Chad Rager 3 is the classic trio concept performing innovative instrumental versions of Jazz Standards, Classic Rock, Blues , R&B, and Originals featuring Chad's drumming, Acoustic Piano and Acoustic Bass, all with that Chad Rager twist. This is a refreshing, entertaining group that is at home providing music for your next corporate event or performing as a headliner in large or small concert venues. The Chad Rager 3, it GROOVES . . . and you will too!

CHAD "CR" RAGER Drumslinger Chad Rager takes some fairly standard/mainstream material, mixes in large doses of creativity, and serves up an entertaining live performance. Chad Rager’s drumming entices you and makes you curious to hear what else he’s going to offer. Rager’s solid skills and ability to weave an interesting percussive display. He drives, he floats, and like a preacher, he delivers his "sermon" and then sets the stage for the choir to "take you home". His group has an ultra-modern, hip, sophisticated moodiness that is established by the drums. Chad Rager manages to maintain an intense tempo without heavy-handed drumming. Rager has the ability to be present without being pushy. He’s there when you need to hear him, but he knows how to set-up and support his mates without getting in their way. He never detracts or distracts. He’s almost invisible at times, but you know that if he wasn’t there, there’d be one huge hole. This man fills the hole, just right. Like a good meal, satisfying, especially if you don’t over eat. Rager’s like that, just enough drums to satisfy, without filling you up.
