Chase Long Beach, a Long Beach, California, ska-punk band, was formed in 2002 with Karen Roberts on vocals, Patt Fitzgerald on bass, and Ryan Sandoval on guitar. The band went through several members and played constant local shows in bars and clubs, but didn't achieve much commercial success. Eventually the band reformed itself in order to take a more serious direction, picking up Dustin Feldt and Ryan "Grandpa" Humphrey on trombone, Jimmy Finch on keyboards, Tristan Dolce on trumpet, Russell Feldt on lead guitar, and Jarod Freeman on drums.
