 | Chuck Beattie
Genre: Chicago Style Blues, Delta Blues, Southern Soul, Alternative Soul
His truly unique, but authentic musical style is influenced by a life lived in the roots music of gospel, rhythm and blues, and soul of eastern North Carolina. With bold vocals reminiscent of past giants like Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf and lyrical sensitivity of practitioners like Taj Mahal, Bill Withers, Keb’ Mo’, Anthony Hamilton or Soul of John Black; this Southern Soul sound is tinged with blues and influences of music steeped in a rich down east tradition developed in classrooms that were the segregated clubs and churches in and near his eastern North Carolina home, Rocky Mount. He utilizes his knowledge of gospel, jazz, and the sounds of the Delta to draw out the best of Chicago Style Blues. Chuck Beattie (aka Dr. Blues), a long time blues aficionado and music historian, is a true musical treasure.
