Evening
Concert - Kennedy Outdoor Theater
Chuck Pyle has
won high praise from both fans and peers alike
throughout an inspired performance career of over 40
years. When reviewers first gave him the "Zen
Cowboy" moniker, he decided to, as he says,
"Always ride the horse in the direction it's
going," and took the nickname to heart, shaving
his head and blending his upbeat perspective with
old-fashioned horse sense. He mixes infectiously
hummable melodies with straight-from-the-saddle
poetry, quoting bumper stickers, proverbs, world
leaders and old cowboys.
An accomplished
songwriter, Chuck's songs have been recorded by John
Denver, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Suzy Bogguss.
Country fans know him best for writing,
"Cadillac Cowboy", recorded by the late
Chris LeDoux, and "Jaded Lover", recorded
by Jerry Jeff Walker.
