Chucky’s River come surging into the musical world that is 2009 after a year of creating, shaping and fine tuning their determined ensemble. The charismatic personalities and diverse musical attitudes of these three musicians are amalgamated to form this driving musical force. Lead singer Comerford set out on a short lived solo project in 2007 with percussionist Conor Stafford. They played over 50 shows including a mini London tour at the end of 07’.

The acoustic circuit, whilst providing an important insight into the performance of songs in their most humble form, resulted in a yearning amid the duo to bring their music to another level. The electric guitars were dusted off and the full drum kit polished up. The hunt for a bass player with the right vision and playing prowess began.

Cupie arrived with his resonant and punchy basslines to bring Chucky’s River to fruition and an intense and committed song writing regime was adhered to during the band’s primordial year of rehearsal. A wide variance of style is injected into the overall sound. Unconventional structure is not feared. The sheer driving nature of the songs coupled with the real life observational lyrics of Comerford make the band’s music both compelling and arousing.

Ultimately, the band felt they had to be ready before the results of their hard work could be unveiled.

That time has come.
