Chuck Ragan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chuck Ragan is an American singer, songwriter, and guitarist. From 1993 until 2006 he was one of the lead singers for Gainesville, Florida-based punk rock band Hot Water Music. The group disbanded on good terms in 2006, and the other three members went on to form punk band The Draft, while Ragan launched a solo career playing folk music similar in tone to a former acoustic Hot Water Music side project called Rumbleseat. He has since released a series of 7-inches on No Idea Records, and a live album and a studio album on Side One Dummy Records. Hot Water Music reunited in 2007 for a tour across the United States and Europe.

The 7-Inch Club - 2006-2007, No Idea Records (Ragan released a series of seven singles, one per month, referred to collectively as "The 7-Inch Club" and because only those who had pre-ordered the entire set ahead of time could obtain copies.) The series was also pressed on a CD entitled The Blueprint Sessions which accompanied the final mailing of the 7-Inch Club.
[edit] Fall 08, The Reunion Tour
Chuck Ragan, Tim Barry, and Ben Nichols are hitting the road this fall on a folk/punk that is a dream ticket for some fans of the genre. It is expected to be a US only tour, and the musicians are working together right now to learn each others songs to play on stage occasionally. It should be a hot ticket when sales are announced.
