Chuck Ragan

A concert by American folk rock musician Chuck Ragan at The Caves in Edinburgh, bringing the songwriter's recordings and live performance to the city's venue for concerts and shows.

Chuck Ragan is an American folk rock musician born in 1974 in Houston, active since 1993. The first album, Los Feliz, was released in 2007 on SideOneDummy Records. Ragan is also a member of Hot Water Music, the punk rock band from Gainesville, Florida, so the catalogue spans both solo recordings and that band's work.

This concert brings Ragan's songwriting to The Caves, a venue in Edinburgh that hosts concerts and shows. The evening suits listeners who follow folk rock and the punk-rooted rock of Hot Water Music, as well as those who want to hear the recordings made since Los Feliz in a live setting.

Ragan's sound draws on the storytelling tradition of folk alongside the driving guitar and vocals associated with punk, which makes the night a route into both sides of a long career that began in the early 1990s.
