Chuck Prophet

Chuck Prophet is a singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist who has created a handful of impressive solo albums while collaborating with some of the most respected figures in roots rock. A songwriter with a melodic sense that brings together the impact of rock with the nuance of country, blues, and folk, Prophet was a key member of the rough-edged paisley underground band Green on Red, who had a small cult following in the United States and a significantly larger one overseas. In between solo efforts, he worked as a sideman, collaborator, or producer for Alejandro Escovedo, Kelly Willis, Warren Zevon, Cake, Kim Richey, and many more. 1993's atmospheric Balinese Dancer, 1997's autobiographical Homemade Blood, 2004's Age of Miracles, and 2012's loving homage to San Francisco Temple Beautiful are examples of his eclectic spirit, and 2024's Wake the Dead celebrated his love of the cumbia music of Latin America.
