San Francisco-based singer-songwriter Chuck Prophet first made a name for himself in the '80s as the young guitarist in L.A.'s Green on Red. Since then, he's released a string of critically praised roots-rock albums, each drawing on a sound that brings to mind the likes of Bob Dylan and Tom Petty. Hear Prophet perform a concert from WXPN and World Café Live in Philadelphia.

Prophet's latest album, Soap and Water, came out last month. Showcasing the singer's talents for extraordinary wordplay, the album does an impressive job of blurring the lines that separate blues, country and roots-rock.
