Chuck Brodsky

One of the first performers at the Purple Onion, Chuck Brodsky has graced our stage for over 20 years, and continues to prove that he is a tour de force when it comes to his unique brand and style of art. Chuck Brodsky is a storyteller, a songwriter, a troubadour, a modern day bard. His wit and irony, down-to-earth warmth, and quirky, rootsy, finely crafted songs, tell stories of oddball and underdog characters. His songs celebrate the goodness in people, the eccentric, the holy, the profound, the courageous, the inspiring, the beautiful. They poke fun at what needs poking, and sometimes challenge what needs to be challenged. They’re sworn to tell the truth.
