Heartaches & Hangovers

Bottle In My Hand

June 27, 2017

Another day, another dollar
Another minute, another hour
Another dead end I will

 follow 
Another pill I had to swallow

To take me away
To take me away

People killing in the streets
People dead for their beliefs
I said, "What's become of peace?"
This wasn't Martin's dream

So take me away
Take me away

They took God out of our schools
What a bunch of meddling fools 
Now look what we've become
And they blame it on a gun

So take me away
Take me away
Take me away 
Take me away 
Take me away
Take me away

Take Me Away

A blend of Southern Rock, Americana, R&B and Soul that reflects the sultry, South Carolina vibe.

Don't Tempt Me

Illusion

All Alone

Time Passes By

Freak You

Caffeine and Nicotine

She's Driving Me Crazy

Fly Away

TLC began as a band in 2010 for a Halloween show in their hometown of Florence, SC. Due to the response from that show other venues came calling and they have since played hundreds of shows throughout the Southeast.  Evidence of what influences shaped Tastes Like Chicken's sound is a bit of challenge to pinpoint. Thus, when someone once asked, Frontman, Lance Shirley to describe his band's sound, he said... "Well, It kind of tastes like Chicken." Thereafter, that's what people referred to them as and the band had found its' name.   The band's quintessentially Americana sound was borne out of myriad genres of music including Jazz, R&B, Country, Soul, Hip Hop, Gospel and Southern Rock. Collectively, they are heavily influenced by myriad genres of music (jazz, r&b, country, soul, hip hop, and Gospel). Starting out in Florence, SC they have since become a fixture on the music scene around the state playing upwards of 200 shows and area festivals a year. 

Tastes Like Chicken prided themselves on their musicianship, audience engagement and original songs. They have an uncanny ability to take other people's music and add their original twist. Their time spent playing is evident in their vocal harmonies and supremely tight sound, with a saxophone as their lead instrument.


They have built up a large following and in 2012, they were named THE BEST BAND IN THE PEE DEE by the Florence Morning News. Tastes Like Chicken band members have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with artists like Sister Hazel, Lee Brice, Boyz II Men, Edwin McCain and The Blue Dogs.

Their debut album, “Don’t Tempt Me” (2012) is still a hot commodity at their shows and fans buy their CDs as much today as when they first released it.   In 2016, Lance and Chad began writing in earnest and got the whole band back into Southern Harmony Studios in Florence, SC.  Their  first single, “Bottle In My Hand” was released on June 23rd with their sophomore album, Heartaches and Hangovers dropping on June 30th.
