Album notes:
Recorded over several periods from 1994 thru 1999, “Chasing the Sun” was a very personal work for Chris. The songwriting reflected several periods in his life, all coming together to create one of the deepest guitar-based records ever. Also featuring great playing from several friends during his travels, and Chris’ brother Mark on drums (who also held the throne on “Damn the Machine”).

Album Notes:
A great find from the Chris Poland tape archives, this disc was recorded live at the Mason Jar in Arizona in 1991. Track 8, “Tin Man”, was originally recorded for the debut release of OHM. That track and the video of “Alexandria” both feature the same lineup, the existing members of OHM.
