VIC CHESNUTTSinger-songwriter of stirring, melancholy roots-rock,
full of desperate characters and Southern Gothic imagery.
Though Michael Stipe had been a fan of Vic Chesnutt since the late '80s, producing
his first two full-lengths, it took the Sweet Relief Two tribute album to make a star of
him in mid-1996. The album featured artists such as Madonna, Hootie & the Blowfish,
Smashing Pumpkins, and R.E.M. covering the songs of Chesnutt, a paraplegic who
was injured in a car accident when he was 18. The singer/songwriter began playing
contemporary acoustic folk around Athens, GA, soon after his injury. A show at the
40 Watt Club brought him to the attention of Stipe, who helped with production
on 1990's Little and 1991's West of Rome, both on Texas Hotel Records

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
On his third, and maybe most conceptually complete, album, Vic Chesnutt emerges
as that rare kind of artist who can see right into the living room of small-town America.
A consistent theme on Drunk, as well as in Chesnutt's other work, is transition
-- whether escaping or just moving -- to someplace else. Very few artists can
communicate these kinds of themes as eloquently and as uniquely as Chesnutt,
and Drunk is a fine example of how he can turn seemingly self-absorbed
songs into something strangely universal...(AllMusic)
