Songwriter Series with Alex Paul & Thom Chacon

With an acoustic guitar and a weathered voice, Thom Chacon, the Durango, Colorado balladeer, breathes life into the characters he creates on paper. In February 2021, Chacon once again landed on the cover of the legendary Italian music magazine, Buscadero. In 2018 he was awarded Buscadero’s “Best New Artist.” Thom Chacon has literally traveled around the world playing his songs: from the intimidating confines of Folsom Prison (“a life-changing experience”) to Thailand, India and Europe. Having wandered the globe, winning over crowds that appreciate the ethos and honesty of his music, these new songs are now proudly presented on Marigolds and Ghosts. Colorado native Alex Paul of Birds of Play won the 2018 Telluride Blues Challenge. “judges not only gave Alex the nod for his excellent guitar work and great vocals, but also were thoroughly impressed with his thoughtful, relatable songs. Rich with meaning, his work brings a modern perspective to the blues genre.”
