About the event
a reflective mountain man. High in the Green Mountains of Vermont, he would prefer to think of himself now as more storyteller than a musician. He holds the music in the highest regard.
To be fair, he has spent nearly four decades out there as a musician. Singer, drummer, guitarist, one-man band. Bars and halls, good and bad. Played with many of the best (Patti Smith, Paw, Duke Robillard, etc.) but now prefers the company of himself to make music happen.
Some have mentioned Tom Waits, Bruce Springsteen, and Jonathan Richman when listening to his music. Chicky was most honored when someone referenced filmmaker David Lynch when referring to his music. Thrilling for sure.
The music explores many fictional stories of fraud, land
development/environmentalism, technology, and death. Somehow done with tongue squarely in cheek.
