Cartalk

Though officially on the scene since 2017, Chuck Moore’s solo project Cartalk has been years in the making, aptly escalating from one late-night text, “Love our car talks,” to a dear friend. With a sound that lingers like a set of fingerprints on the dashboard, Cartalk will leave the impression of those unadulterated conversations, a recall to all that can be intimate and infinite in such exchange. Cartalk is Moore’s pivotal premiere of revving grunge with a glint of Americana and a “feeling lucky but not for long” attitude to boot. The band has been featured in Stereogum and did an in-studio session at KEXP
