Chase Choral Mixed Voice Choir was formed in 1981 as a result of the amalgamation of the Joseph Lucas Male Voice Choir, conducted by Derek Bailey, and the Cannock Ladies' Choir. Derek became the conductor of the new choir, and his wife Sheila, along with Ray Smith and Walter and Joan Lane, were among the founder members. Ray and Joan have remained lifelong honorary members of the choir and continue to provide unwavering support.

Other members have also been active supporters of the choir over the years and have played a vital role in the choir's development. In the 1980s, the choir established strong links with the German Datteln Haffenchor, and the two choirs arranged successful exchange visits, with a highlight being Chase Choral's performance at Datteln Cathedral to an appreciative audience. Additionally, Chase Choral has performed with and been hosts to the Llandullas Male Voice Choir on numerous occasions.

Despite its rich history, the choir remains focused on meeting new challenges and continuing to evolve. Throughout its existence, Chase Choral has kept the love of singing at the very heart of everything it does.
