Reveille

Some bands are content to remain within the rigid confines of their musical comfort zones. The Chubby Knuckle Choir is not one of those bands. Nobody gleefully shatters genre boundaries like this frenetic foursome, who play everything from bongos to banjos onstage. In the past five years, this creative group has earned comparisons to acts like The Gourds, the Wood Brothers, and Asylum Street Spankers, and has steadily built a dedicated fan base that's drawn to the Choir's joyful noise. Now based in Austin, the Chubby Knuckle Choir is ready to release their 2015 debut album, Reveille. Recorded live in Austin's Congress House Studio and produced and engineered by Andre Moran (Hot Club of Cowtown, Eliza Gilkyson), the record sizzles with the high spirited energy of a Chubby Knuckle live show. Reveille includes guest appearances by Glenn Fukunaga and Sons of Fathers' David Beck.
