Ball in the House – “Take A Chance”

Ball in the House has been doing their thing for years, and with their new single “Take A Chance”, they’re proving once again that they know how to put out a song that makes you interested from the first second to the last one. Released on July 1, 2025, this track blends those shimmering ’80s-inspired drums with sleek synth-driven energy, but what makes it unique is that every single sound comes from the human voice.

The song itself is all about risking everything for love. You can tell it came from a very personal place since Kevin Cincotta-Guest, the group’s bass vocalist and GRAMMY Voting Member, wrote it based on his own early dating memories with his now-wife. That’s probably why it hits so naturally, because there’s an honesty and warmth running underneath the upbeat vibe that makes it more than just a catchy tune.

“Take A Chance” also works as a celebration of the group as a whole. Tyler Nordin’s lead vocals give it that soaring hook, Jon Ryan’s vocal percussion keeps the rhythm driving, Kevin brings in his grounding bass, Oscar Hall adds richness with the baritone, and Wallace Thomas along with Tyler layer the tenor parts. Add in auxiliary vocals from JourneyDay and others, and the textures just stack in this huge, full way. The fact that it was tracked in different places, from Kevin’s old home studio in Northborough to sessions in Boston and even New York, shows how much effort went into crafting it from start to finish.
