Prophet’s extraordinary—and unlikely—new album, “Wake The Dead” was recorded with ¿Qiensave?, a band of brothers from the Central Coast farming community of Salinas, California, the collection dives headfirst into the world of Cumbia music, which consumed and comforted Prophet during his illness and subsequent recovery. The songs are intoxicatingly rhythmic, with arrangements that blur the lines between tradition and innovation, between past and present, between cultures and countries. 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 hundreds of years and thousands of miles.

“It’s a good day to walk on water / Good day to swallow your pride,” Prophet sings in the album’s final moments. “Good day to call your mother / Oh, it’s a good day to be alive.”

Chuck will be touring the UK with members of his own band and ¿Qiensave?, playing his classics along with tracks from the new album.
