In the lively music scene of New Orleans, a new voice is emerging that is sure to make waves across genres and music communities. Pedro Sandoval Chable, known by his artist name “Damian Ch,” is from Veracruz, Mexico, and is currently a senior at Loyola University, studying Hip-Hop and R&B. Also a graduate of Grace King High School, Damian’s music is marked by a variety of influences, including genres like Reggaeton and Regional Mexican music.
Damian Ch has crafted a unique sound, drawing inspiration from artists like Don Omar, Bad Bunny, and producers such as Tainy. A pivotal moment in his artistic journey was the release of Feid’s album Inter Shibuya La Mafia, which fueled his passion for music and helped him find his artistic voice.
Balancing his music career with academic pursuits, Damian emphasizes that being a music artist demands more from him than his studies. His schedule involves coordinating with his manager, setting deadlines, and maintaining a disciplined approach to his creative process. Damian draws inspiration for his songs from personal experiences and the vibrant culture around him, aiming to portray authentic narratives that resonate with his audience.
His upcoming single, “No Hablo Inglés,” which tackles themes of immigration and social justice, reflects the depth of his artistry. Recently, Damian was recognized as a Latin Artist to Watch at NOLA MusiCon, sharing the stage with fellow local talents and discussing his experiences as a Latin artist. He is also set to perform at this year’s New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, where he plans to showcase tracks from his forthcoming EP, SEA (Sigo Extrañandote Aquí). This project aims to unite the local Latin community and introduce fresh sounds to the genre.
