Barry first found music when he borrowed his sister's record collection when he was about eight and was hooked. When Caroline started it was a new beginning, and he listened to all the stations, but Caroline was his favourite by far. Later he became a singer in a band, then started doing discos when he was 18. He joined Caroline in 1977, touring the country with the Caroline Roadshow for 10 years, having great fun. Barry helped with tender trips and worked on the Ross Revenge in '84 and '85. ...

Singer, songwriter, bandleader and founder of the legendary BR549, Chuck Mead, joins me on the show this week.
There’s some people that just have music in their veins and they can do things with it and within it that other people can’t - perfectly naturally with seemingly no effort. Well, Chuck is one of those guys. He just knows music. He understands country music and rock & roll in a deep way. He can sing it, feel and play it better than almost anyone. Chuck is known as the leader of the band BR549, which was a huge band in the alt-country scene in the 90’s before “Americana” existed. That band, almost single-handedly, turned Broadway in Nashville into a hopping live music scene, where there really was nothing much going on before they arrived. He’s also a fantastic solo performer and bandleader in his own right, as well as having a big part in the Broadway musical “The Million Dollar Quartet”.
Chuck was born in Missouri, but grew up in Kansas, where he started playing music in all kinds of country and rock bands, but also played in a family band, touring on weekends all through high school and cutting his teeth that way. His band, The Homestead Grays, had some notoriety around Kansas, but when that band broke up, he moved to Nashville in the early 90’s. Broadway at that time was just a sleazy street with a couple bars, some cool guitar shops, and not much else. But that all changed once Chuck and his band (which became BR549) started playing basically 6 nights a week at Robert’s Western World and Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge. Their notoriety led to them being put on the cover of Billboard magazine, which essentially started a label bidding war for the band and led to a deal with Arista records. The band made about 7 albums before splitting up. Since then, Chuck has made 4 solo albums, and played on the Grand Ol Opry a whopping 137 times. He’s been nominated for 3 Grammys and is still very active around Nashville. You can get all the latest onfo and find out when he’s playing at chuckmead.com
This season is brought to you by our main sponsors Larivée Guitars, Audeze, Izotope, FabFilter, and Chase Bliss.
He’s also a hilarious fellow and a great story teller as you’ll hear, so now please enjoy my conversation with Chuck Mead!
