Davey and the Chains is a Philadelphia-based project led by multi-instrumentalist and producer David Ulrich. Known for a hazy blend of disco-boogie, funk, and soul—often described as stoner funk or Lovers Rock—the band crafts grooves that feel both retro-inspired and distinctly modern. With a DIY ethos, Ulrich has steered the project through self-released albums and limited-run tapes, developing a devoted following through intimate live performances and expansive, groove-forward recordings.
