Feast Or Famine

Feast Or Famine

• audio CD
• all songs written by Chuck Ragan
• made in USA

"Feast Or Famine" is undeniably a folk record in the most traditional sense. The violin-driven "Do You Pray" is reminiscent of Bruce Springsteen's Seeger sessions; "Don't Cry" recalls Uncle Tupelo, and the austere "Symmetry" is dripping with so much raw emotion that you can almost feel Ragan's presence next to you as he delivers his lyrics with his trademark urgency and passion. Contributors include Matt Skiba (The Alkaline Trio), Jolie Holland, Tim Barry (Avail), Nathan Maxwell (Flogging Molly), James Fearnley (The Pogues), and the album's producer Ted Hutt, who has worked with The Bouncing Souls and Flogging Molly.
