About Chubby Knuckle Choir
CHUBBY KNUCKLE CHOIR
https://www.thechubbyknucklechoir.com/epk
This three-piece band offers three solo artists and songwriters. Their style ranges from Rock, Blues, R&B, Country, Americana or in other words Acid Funk-Soulgrass.
The Chubby Knuckle Choir officially formed in 2009 in Bastrop, Texas with founding members Curtis Farley, Perry Lowe, Rory Smith, and Tres Womack. The band currently consists of Perry Lowe, Rory Smith, and Cody Justin King.
The name Chubby Knuckle Choir came from former bass man, and original member Curtis Farley in a comedic moment, while working in Twisted Twig Studio with Perry Lowe and Rory Smith.
With thoughtfully crafted tunes and lyrics that catch you off guard with their clarity and brutal honesty, the band delivers quality entertainment without any pretense and takes things back to the days of accessible, self-deprecating live shows.
"Our sound is a marriage of all genres,” explains Lowe, who sings, plays guitar, drums, and keys, while Smith describes it as “folk music from a country that isn’t around … but should be.”
While other musicians stay beholden to genre and specific song arrangements, The Chubby Knuckle Choir’s music changes with every performance. It’s this spontaneity and constant willingness to experiment musically that makes them one of the most unique and compelling bands in Texas today.
With a fresh approach but continuing the formula of unique instrumentation, all are singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists who come from varying musical and geographical backgrounds, which is embraced by the band to encourage diversity of thought in their music.

Lloyd Maines
“CHUBBY KNUCKLE CHOIR IS A MUST-SEE BAND, FRESH AS THE AIR YOU BREATHE. CONGO-COOL MEETS CAJUN COUNTRY...CHECK 'EM OUT!!! Brett Dillon-KHYI-95.3 FM-"The Range", Dallas Radio.”
“A mix of styles, The Chubby Knuckle Choir may be indefinable, but they sure are a treat to hear...”
Kate Ludlow - The Independent
“The memorably-named Chubby Knuckle Choir rolls about a dozen genres into their groove, making multicultural yet down-home beer-drinking music for fans who like their roots mixed with a sense of adventure...”
Mike Ethan Messick - Texas Music TV
“...The result is a delicious musical bouillabaisse of swampy blues, rocking country and R&B. The tasty licks and tangy riffs will leave you hungry for more.”
Hap Mansfield - San Marcos Mercury
“Very entertaining live show. I’ve been looking for a band to fill the empty place in my soul left by the breakup of the Asylum Street Spankers and I may have finally found it – right in my back yard.
