CHASEN Project originally started in early 1986 as the band CHASEN when Vocalist/Guitarist Mark Chasen and Lead Guitarist Jimmy Maropoulos decided to start a new project after both had spent time in the popular Philly/South Jersey band Whitefoxx. Chasen, a founding member of Whitefoxx, decided to form a writing team with Maropoulos.
Chasen and Maropoulos had always worked very well together. Jeff LaBar had originally recommended Maropoulos to Whitefoxx after LaBar left Whitefoxx to join Cinderella. With bassist Donie Bufalo and drummer Jimmy “Feek” Ferraioli as part of the original lineup, Chasen, Maropoulos, Bufalo & Ferraioli went on to form the band CHASEN. Bobby Buerklin played keyboards for the band and sang backup vocals. The band is now known as CHASEN Project because a Christian rock group named Chasen is already signed to a record label. Mark Chasen studied Classical and Opera voice at Bryn Mawr Conservatory of Music in PA and also voice strengthening with Elizabeth Sabine in LA. Mark also studied guitar with teachers Chuck Anderson and Doug Marks. His Uncle Albert Harris Directed a play called “Stardust” which hit Broadway in 1990. His grandfather Charlie Chasen played guitar in a trio called Three Shades of Rhythm with Buddy Greco in 1945.
