It’s Time is a set of all-original material backed by musicians from Jamaica, Venezuela, LA and the UK playing rockers-style reggae rhythms rooted in the classic golden era. Chuck’s own influences include folk, country, rock, jazz and rhythm and blues but ska, rock steady and reggae are at the root of the music even though he doesn’t try to sing in patois. The songs address contemporary issues ad the vibe is positive.
