Overview

Houston’s genre-smashing live act fusing metal riffs, hip-hop verses, and funk grooves into one unrelenting wall of sound. Fronted by the explosive Chutes McGoo – picture Slipknot colliding with Andre 3000 at a Pantera show. We deliver 45–75 minutes of high-energy performance: constant movement, crowd-surfing, circle pits, and zero lulls. Fresh off our new EP PROMOSEXUAL.
Why book CHAW? Most bands bring one style – we hit with three at once, pull every type of fan to the floor, and turn any night into a sold-out, unforgettable event. If you want a packed room and a show people still talk about months later, we’re your act.

About

CHAW is a Houston-bred live act that obliterates genre lines with a relentless blend of downtuned metal riffs, razor-sharp hip-hop verses, and infectious funk grooves. Fronted by the commanding Chutes Debris McGoo, the band hits the stage like Slipknot crashing a Beastie Boys set inside a Pantera pit—raw, unpredictable, and impossible to ignore.
Formed in 2019, CHAW has spent the last six years honing a sound and live show that turns rooms into sweat-soaked war zones. Their discography includes the breakout Cupid Stunts (2023), the darker Tapped Out (2025), and the brand-new PROMOSEXUAL EP that’s already lighting up the local scene. Every release is built for the stage: huge hooks, crushing breakdowns, and lyrics that hit the misfits and the moshers in equal measure.
Live, CHAW is a guaranteed draw. With over 1,500 rabid local followers and a reputation for packing venues from Scout Bar to The 19th Hole, they deliver 45–75 minutes of non-stop intensity and a setlist that keeps every corner of the room moving. Bars stay busy, merch tables empty out, and crowds leave hoarse and begging for the next one.
If you’re looking for a safe, one-dimensional night, keep scrolling. If you want a diverse crowd, a packed floor, and an event that people still talk about months later, book CHAW. Houston’s heaviest fusion act is ready to make your stage the place to be.
