From humble blue-collar beginnings, the group has culminated their own unique blend of rust-belt rock, drawing from a wide range of musical influences, like classic jam heroes the Grateful Dead and Pink Floyd, to outlaw country and bluegrass greats such as Willie Nelson and Del McCoury. However, the regions potent blues, funk and R&B heritage has not escaped the groups formidable original catalog, resulting in the unique Chester Brown sound that continues to capture fans young and old.
