Chord Overstreet
- Actor
- Soundtrack
Chord Overstreet was born in Nashville, Tennessee, to Julie (Miller), a
make-up artist, and Paul Overstreet, a
country musician and songwriter whose own father was a pastor. Chord
and his five siblings were raised in a creative and music-filled
environment, with their father highly involved in the music industry.
His brother, Nash Overstreet, is in the
band Hot Chelle Rae.
After Chord graduated from high school in 2007, he decided to pursue performing as a career from the encouragement and support of his parents, and from his talent of singing, acting, and playing instruments. Unfortunately, the first two to three years after high school were unsuccessful for Chord; only making small guest appearances on various television shows such as iCarly (2007) and Private (2009).
In early 2010, Chord received a call from his manager, urging him to audition for an open casting call for the FOX television series Đội Hát Trung Học (2009). After several callbacks and audition performances, Chord got the role of quarterback turned glee club member, Sam Evans, for the hit show. Since Chord's debut performance on the season premiere of the 2nd season of Đội Hát Trung Học (2009), he has received critical and commercial praise and success for his performance on the show, along with a large following of dedicated and loving fans.
