Few musicians can claim “on-the roadisms” the way poet and storyteller Chris Chandler can. He is a true veteran of the road, traveling across the US and Canada for many years, performing on thousands of stages and for hundreds of organizations seeking social justice. His anthology of road tales transforms into a flock of doves beneath the musical high-wire act.
He has been called “America’s best kept secret” and has worked with everyone from Allen Ginsberg to Ani DiFranco and Pete Seeger to Mojo Nixon. Utah Phillips says, “Chris Chandler is the best performance poet I have ever seen”.
We are excited to welcome Chris Chandler to Word of South, where he will perform on the Ology Troubadour stage!
