Chuck Prophet

Friday, Jul. 31 | 8:00pm ET (7:00pm CT)

CountryRock

You know the songs, but you’ve never heard them like this. Chuck Prophet on acoustic guitar. Stephanie Finch singing harmony and playing piano, Mike Anderson on upright bass, and Sean Nelson keeping the beat. This tight-knit group is playing songs from all across Chuck Prophet’s lengthy catalog, but they’ve been reimagined. Stripped down. Turned inside out a little. Intimate. Earthy, loose, deceptively raw. But above all — somehow — it still rocks.

Rolling Stone dubbed Chuck Prophet a “streetwise city kid with an eye for the country.” Uncut proclaimed him a “renaissance-rocker.” And NPR declared that “no one can turn tales from the outer limits into catchy songs quite like Prophet does.”

We’ve got ourselves a cool little four-piece acoustic country-rock road band. No smoke machines. No backing tracks. Just the sound of wood, wire, skin, and air moving around a room. I’m on acoustic guitar. Stephanie is at the piano, singing those harmonies. Mike Anderson is on upright bass — all boom-boom and backbone — and Sean Nelson is over there with brushes on a snare. We’re playing songs from all across my catalog, but they’ve been reimagined. Stripped down. Turned inside out a little. Intimate. Earthy, loose, deceptively raw. But above all — somehow — it still rocks. And who knows? We’ve got a cool audience, so maybe we’ll even take a request or two if the mood takes hold.

– Love, Chuck
