Known for his unrelenting optimism and animated personality, LA based alt-rock artist Chad Tepper translates his enthusiasm for life into upbeat, pop-tinged alternative rock. Today, in collaboration with singer/rapper Matisyahu, he dedicates their earnest new track "Buy Us A House" to his mother. Check out their music video:

Underneath his positive exterior, Chad Tepper has faced his share of hardships growing up. The unfortunate fate of his early life saw his family facing homelessness for seven years, an experience that has forever shaped the person and artist he is today.

With his mother currently residing in a trailer, Chad's biggest goal in life is to buy her a house of her own, musing "It's the thing that keeps me going through it all." He continues, "It's a dream of mine that will one day come true, so I had to write a song about it and dedicate it to my mom."

Boasting previous singles with artists and bands such as Simple Plan, Travie McCoy, and most recently Lit with uplifting track "777", "Buy Us A House" is a continuation in a string of dream collaborations.

This one in particular is closer to the heart with Chad's mom being a self-professed "hardcore fan" of Matisyahu. It was a humbling moment for Chad when he learned that the celebrated artist was on board, stating "Matis is the best dude ever and to have him on this is really special."

Since hitting the studio for the first time four years ago, the charismatic singer is proving to be our generation's next authentic rock star. The effortlessly grunge quality of his voice, combined with an all or nothing mindset and flair for storytelling, finds him equipped with the tools he needs for a fruitful career.

Already seeing streams in the millions - over 15 million this past year alone - his talents have been recognized by industry majors such as Apple 1, Spotify, Lyrical Lemonade, KROQ among others.
