![]() Gold Country is a 13-song compilation of some of Ragan’s most passionate music to date. His folk projects and CDs would easily fit anywhere in the CD collection of fans of Johnny Cash, for example. Ragan’s music is not just for fans of his old band, however. With three other acoustic albums under his belt and several more available only on vinyl or iTunes, Ragan has certainly spent a great deal of time focusing on his post-Hot Water Music solo project, showing fans the diversity of his musical talents. This is not the first time fans of Chuck Ragan have seen his talented mastery of the folk genre. The show was a perfect venue for Chuck Ragan to perform and promote songs off his newest acoustic folk CD, Gold Country, which dropped this past September. Together with his wife Jill Ragan, guitarist and harmonica player Chuck Ragan brought the second revival of the Revival Tour to the area. ![]() No, it was not a religious event fueled by prayers, hymns, and “Amens!” Rather, former Hot Water Music frontman Chuck Ragan and several other artists collaborated for what was a unique and rare opportunity to see several musicians in popular punk and indie bands shed their rock roots and focus on an entirely different genre-folk music, while playing only acoustic instruments and harmonicas. A few weeks ago, I bought tickets to see the Revival Tour in Philadelphia.
