Chuck Brodsky (born on May 20, 1960 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) is an American musician currently living in North Carolina. He is particularly known for his often humorous and political lyrics, and for his songs about baseball, such as "The Ballad of Eddie Klepp" and "Moe Berg: The Song". On his 2004 album Color Came One Day, he took on pollution in "Seven Miles Upwind", the destruction of independent business and regional culture by multinational corporations in "Trees Falling", and the abridgement of civil liberties associated with Bush administration policies in Dangerous Times.
His song "Radio" was featured in the movie Radio.[1]
