Chuck Pyle

To some, singer/songwriter Chuck Pyle is a walking contradiction. One reviewer labeled him "the Zen Cowboy" for his delightful but seemingly-at-odds mix of upbeat contemporary humor and straight-from-the-saddle poetry. With his own unique "southwestern Acoustic" sound, he compresses western themes with folk, rock and cowboy influences into his own philosophical blend of Cowboy Zen.

Chuck's songs have been recorded by popular artists including Jerry Jeff Walker, John Denver, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Tish Hinojosa, and Chris DeRoux. His 1980 song "Cadillac Cowboy" topped the country charts in 1991 as performed by Chris DeRoux.

Chuck has recorded seven albums. His latest, "Affected by the Moon," was released in January 2002.

"Pyle has a light, charismatic voice and a virtuosic finger-picking style that's both refined and impressive..."

"Chuck Pyle's music is good medicine. It stars my thoughts turning, gets my heart breathing, and sends my imagination flying..."
