Chuck Prophet

CHUCK PROPHET – QUARTET Chuck Prophet’s streak of more than a dozen critically acclaimed solo records stretches all the way back to 1990, when the California native first shifted focus from his tenure with pioneering neo-psych band Green on Red to working under his own name. Since then, his songs have appeared in a slew of films and television shows, and his work has been covered by Bruce Springsteen, Solomon Burke, Heart, and a host of others. Rolling Stone dubbed him 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.” Chuck Prophet’s latest record, Wake The Dead, dives headfirst into the world of Cumbia music.
