In groups, and as a solo performer, Chuck McCabe has played in Disneyland's Golden Horseshoe Saloon, Nashville's Bluebird Cafe, L.A.'s Troubador and Ice House, toured Viet Nam, Thailand, Japan and the Philippines for the USO.

In 20 years on the road, he played more summers on Cape Cod, winters in Vail, Steamboat Springs, and Bear Valley than he can remember... more coffee houses, ginmills, Holiday Inns and Ramadas than he'd care to admit.

An award-winning songwriter (American Song Festival, Music City Songfest, Sisters Folk Fest , Napa Valley Music Festival, Tucson Folk Festival, Wildflower Festival, and the Woody Guthrie Songwriting Competition), he has to his credit numerous independent releases (he will soon release his third self-produced CD on the Blah Blah Woof Woof label).

He has also recorded his songs on the ABC, Capitol and GRT labels in L.A. and Nashville, and was a staff writer for ABC. He wrote the Pet Rock song with the Rock's inventor, and was supposed to get rich... all he got was a big phone bill.

His first book was published in 1993, and sold not only to musicians and songwriters, but to countless colleges and county libraries across the country, following a buy-recommendation by the American Library Association.

He performs some 100 shows a year at rest homes, convalescent hospitals and senior living facilities for the non-profit Young at Heart Project, featuring vintage American music from the 1930s and '40s.

In addition to his work as a solo performer, he currently plays bass in an Irish group, lead guitar in an oldies band, and 5-string banjo with some folkies. He is working on a second book, and runs a popular workshop for the West Coast Songwriters organization.

Despite numerous close-calls, he has managed to elude both fame and fortune..
