AOTW // Chuck Ragan

Posted on Monday 22nd February 2021 at 16:00

Iconoclastic songwriter Chuck Ragan has been thrilling fans for three decades, first as a lead singer for Florida-based punk band Hot Water Music before singing politically charged fiery folk anthems to ever-growing audiences as a solo artist. Drawing comparisons to the great Bruce Springsteen and acclaimed contemporary Frank Turner, Ragan is renowned for his passionate performances and rousing delivery which celebrates the everyday person and places the story of the forgotten blue colour workers firmly in the limelight.

Following the disbanding of Hot Water Music in 2005, Ragan took the brace decision to carry on as a lone artist. His tremendous charisma and driving song writing skill has attracted a truly dedicated fanbase, playing to packed out venues wherever he goes. The vitality of his onstage persona has been captured on four LPS, including Feast of Famine (2007), Gold Country (2009), Covering Ground (2011) and his latest LP Till Midnight (2014) – plus a growing number of extremely popular live albums.
