chuck

Megan Benavente is a familiar face to avid attendees of shows in the indie and punk rock scenes over the last several years. In 2018, she joined Pinegrove as a band member and in between these extensive stints away from home, Benavente quietly weaved together her own collection of songs; creating the first anticipated-release from her new project, chuck.


chuck showcases a refreshing, in-your- face sonic universe that relishes the fleeting moments and urges us to investigate what’s most important to us. This uninhibited approach creates a kaleidoscope of kick- ass textures, created with the help of Manchester Orchestra members Tim Very (drums) and Andy Prince (bass), Pat Benson, formerly of Tigers Jaw (guitar) and producer Kyle Berzle.


Here, she taps into something real and concrete through introspective honesty, self- belief and the spur-of-the-moment creativity that only comes from collaborating with some of your best friends and trusting your gut.
