CHUCK PROPHET AND HIS CUMBIA SHOES

 

Music was a savior when roots rock heavy hitter Chuck Prophet was being treated for stage four lymphoma. His extraordinary new work explores the world of Cumbia music, which consumed and comforted Prophet during his illness and subsequent recovery. The arrangements blur the lines between tradition and innovation, with flashes of rock and roll, punk, surf, and soul. 

Music was a savior when roots rock heavy hitter Chuck Prophet was being treated for stage four lymphoma. His extraordinary new album explores the world of Cumbia music, which consumed and comforted Prophet during his illness and subsequent recovery. The songs are intoxicatingly rhythmic, all but demanding you move your body, with arrangements that blur the lines between tradition and innovation. There are flashes of rock and roll, punk, surf, and soul, all filtered through the streets of San Francisco and wrapped up in the rich legacy of a genre that traces its roots back to the jungles of South America.

Prophet’s streak of more than a dozen critically acclaimed solo albums stretching all the way back to 1990, when the California native first shifted focus from pioneering neo-psych band Green on Red to working under his own name. Since then, Prophet, who is now in full remission, has earned raves everywhere from Rolling Stone to NPR..
