Riverside teen Chase Walker is a finalist in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest.

Walker, who leads the blues-influenced Chase Walker Band, is one of three finalists in the “Folk” category.

He won for his song “Too Many Days Ago.”

The band just played at the LA County Fair and has two other shows of note coming up.

Today, the band will perform at the Artists in the Plus Online Music Festival. You can follow along on your own computer.

Then, on Monday, the Chase Walker Band will be at The Roxy in West Hollywood as part of the Artists in the Plus after party.

Here’s the song Walker penned that won him that finalist spot in the John Lennon competition. If you want to learn a little more about Walker and his band, check out the interview I did a few weeks back.
