Chuck Ragan
August 23 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
Chuck Ragan plays at Slowdown on Aug. 23. Gerald Lee Jr. of Black Cat Rodeo opens the show. Doors open at 7 p.m.; concert starts at 8.
Some people know Ragan from the pioneering punk act, Hot Water Music, which he’s co-fronted for the past three decades. Others are aware of his successful solo career or the Revival Tour, a collection of traveling troubadours that included his peers like Frank Turner and the Gaslight Anthem’s Brian Fallon. Some folks may have even come across him from the successful fly fishing operation he runs out of Grass Valley, Calif.
The one throughline through all this is the way that Ragan approaches everything with a level of honesty and integrity that can’t be faked – and that sentiment is undeniable on “Love And Lore,” his first solo collection in 10 years and one that’s being released as Hot Water Music take a well-deserved victory lap for their breakout album “Vows,” which came out earlier this year.
