A conversation with Chuck Prophet in his San Francisco studio. He talks about his recovery from stage 4 lymphoma, how it inspired the songs on his new album that he made with Cumbia group Qiensave and why the recording process is still such a fulfilling art form.

Chuck鈥檚 new 16th studio album, Wake The Dead, mixes country with Latino, all filtered through the streets of San Francisco and wrapped up in the rich legacy of a genre that traces its roots back hundreds of years and thousands of miles.

Featuring new and classic country and Americana music.
