Chuck Prophet, appearing on Mountain Stage Oct. 28th |
As
you might have heard, Beth Orton has decided to cancel tomorrow
night's performance on Mountain Stage. But the show must go on –
and go on it will with our friend Chuck
Prophet.
Chuck Prophet's latest album is "Temple Beautiful."
No
stranger to Mountain Stage audiences, this will mark Prophet's fifth
appearance on the the show – you
can listen to his 2010 performance here, when he stopped by in
support of his album Let Freedom Ring. Based out of his native
California, prophet has worked with, and had his songs recorded by a
who's who of music luminaries, including Ryan Adams, Lucinda
Williams, Kim Richey, Heart, Mofro, and Kelly Willis. Among his most
notable collaboration is with roots music great and “genre unto
himself” Alejandro Escovedo, who has co-written his last few albums
with Prophet.

And
you may have even noticed his song “You Did” during the closing
credits of HBO's True Blood:

Many
thanks to Chuck for agreeing to swing by our show on a moment's
notice. It's going to be a great night of music in Charleston, with
Lucy Kaplansky, David Wax Museum, Jesse Harris, and Barnaby Bright.
We'll see you there!
