‘This Is Chicago House’ by Vince Lawrence And Chuck Roberts is being considered for the category of Best Dance Recording and ‘This Is Chicago House’ By Vince Lawrence And Chuck Roberts – Marshall Jefferson Remix is being considered for Best Remixed Recording. The initial round of voting for both of these nominations is underway, and will conclude on November 5th. Nominations for the 64th GRAMMY Awards will be announced on November 23rd.

“Much like soccer, House music is a universal language spoken and understood by all,” shares Chicago House AC Chief Operating Officer, Night Train Veeck. “It has been such a special and humbling opportunity to be able to collaborate, from our team’s very inception, with House Music legends Marshall, Vince, and Chuck in creating this track. We are proud to play a small part in honoring the House music community, and the beautiful city that created it.”

The track’s producer, Vince Lawrence and writer/performer Chuck “The Voice” Roberts, are two of the most iconic artists when it comes to Chicago House music, which was born in Chicago in the 1980’s. Both artists have lived and breathed the genre since it first appeared in venues around the Windy City. The duo collaborated with Chicago’s new pro soccer team to produce ‘This Is Chicago House’ in conjunction with Slang Music Group. The track speaks to every moment in the history of the global House Music family. From legacy to future possibilities, Vince and Chuck focus on the beat, groove and hook, in a way that defines what it means to “be house”.

“House Music is the story of hard working Black entrepreneurs yearning to create joy in their community, young Black teens inventing their own ‘summer jobs’ when there were few to be found, inclusivity for every type of human and so much more,” explains Slang Music Group’s Vince Lawrence, who wrote and produced ‘This Is Chicago House’ inspired by Chicago House AC. “House Music is ours, it’s for us, started in our city, but we share it with the world for all to enjoy. House Music is the groove we started right here on the Southside, but get little credit for these days. This is Chicago House. There is nothing like it anywhere.”

Since adopting the track in August 2021, Chicago House AC has found creative ways to integrate the team’s anthem into many different facets of Chicago’s new sports brand. ‘This Is Chicago House’ is the music fans hear during matches at SeatGeek Stadium, in team videos and social media content, and more.

“The two things that bring people together, more than anything, are soccer and music. This is what makes Chicago House music and Chicago House AC special,” explains Chicago House AC midfielder and Team Captain, Drew Conner. “To have our team named after House music and it’s birthplace was something that immediately drew me and many others to the club. After hearing our team’s anthem ‘This is Chicago House’, I knew it was something special that both music and soccer fans could rally behind. The energy in this song is infectious and the message is clear. House is all about inclusivity, self-love and respect for others. Although the House music genre has spread all over the world, and split into many different sub-genres, this song is a reminder of where it all started. 10/10 great walkout song.”
