About
Chuck Ragan brings his solo work to Slowdown in Omaha, with the long-running Hot Water Music co-frontman appearing under his own name. The set draws on the folk, punk, and singer-songwriter side of Ragan’s catalog, centered on the weathered voice and plainspoken writing that connect his solo records, the Revival Tour, and his work beyond Hot Water Music.
Who's playing
Chuck Ragan is the billed performer for this Slowdown show in Omaha. Ragan is known both as a guitarist and vocalist for Hot Water Music and as a solo artist whose work moves through acoustic folk, folk-punk, and roots-minded rock.
What to expect
Expect a song-focused performance built around Ragan’s gravelly vocals, guitar-driven arrangements, and lyrics shaped by travel, family, relationships, and the search for steadiness. His solo material includes Love And Lore, described in his official bio as his first solo collection in ten years and a record that expands beyond a simple folk label.
Why go
For fans who know Ragan through Hot Water Music, this is a chance to hear his writing in a more personal solo setting. For Omaha listeners drawn to punk songwriters, acoustic storytelling, and road-worn rock voices, Chuck Ragan at Slowdown offers a direct line between underground punk history and stripped-back songwriting.
