Chuck Prophet: Fall/Winter Tour
 |
Chuck Prophet will launch a new U.S. tour in November in support of his stellar new album, Let Freedom Ring!, which was released this week on October 27. The Houston Press raved, “A new Chuck Prophet album is better than Christmas [and Let Freedom Ring!] finds Prophet on top of his game.”
Prophet will be backed on tour by The Mission Express featuring Stepanie Finch (keys, vocals), Kevin White (bass), Todd Roper (drums), and James DePrato (guitars).
Spinner.com spoke to Prophet about recording the new album in Mexico City amidst the
April swine flu outbreak. He told Spinner, “Mexico City is an ancient and ailing metropolis, but at the same time it’s booming. It rocks, it bustles, it’s a hell-hole and it’s paradise. Yes, it’s also the capital of the second or third world, our own urban future — almost sci-fi. It’s not the place you want to be when the black plague comes down.”
