Relocating to Los Angeles in 2010 to pursue a music career, Chal self-released his debut EP, 2013's Ballroom Riots, which caught the interest of Sony, who signed him to a publishing deal.

Between 2021 - 2023, recording between Peru, New York, Paris, and Los Angeles, A.CHAL produced his most personal & transcending record to date: ESPÍRITU
