Chuck Prophet – “Let Freedom Ring”

Now is the moment to catch up with Chuck Prophet, who graduated from lead guitar in 80s garage country band Green on Red (check out their album Gas Food Lodging – coulda been recorded today!) to roam, over a dozen-fold albums and more, through roots, swamp rock, alt-hop and just about whatever else you could imagine, all the while getting his material covered by Heart, Kelley Willlis, and Boz Scaggs, to name a few.

His current sound, which takes its rocking cues from vintage 70s power pop, is featured on Temple Beautiful, released in January (preview the entire album on SoundCloud). This is a performer with nigh on three decades of live performance under his belt, so you know he will be bringing it to Great American Music Hall Friday night (9pm, $18). Don’t take your local legends for granted.

We have a pair of tickets to give away for Friday’s show! Email contest@thebaybridged.com – the THIRD person to email will be the winner!
