Chuck is one of the most admired and sought-after piano players and keyboardists in the music industry! A member of The Rolling Stones band for over 25 years, he has played with some of the greatest artists of all time including Eric Clapton, George Harrison, The Allman Brothers Band and The Black Crows to name a few. In addition to his love for music and performing for people all around the world, Chuck is also valued and highly praised for his conservationist work in forestry and the environment, having garnered an impressive array of awards and recognitions for his efforts.

He is also the author of three books. Two of which, focus on the environment ”Forever Green” which deals with the history of forestry in the US and “The Tree Farmer”, an award winning children’s book. And he is the author of “Between Rock and a Home Place,” a book which shares his thoughts and feelings on his experiences and balancing life as a musician, husband and father.

Chuck recently wrapped up the 2007 European leg of The Rolling Stone’s “A Bigger Bang Tour”. While in Europe, he also completed the first leg of his “Green Leaves and Blue Notes” tour, and will release a live CD from that experience in spring of ‘08. He currently has a new jazzy solo CD out called “Southscape.”

Chuck keeps a very busy schedule, but is available to speak to large and small audiences alike. His speech includes a motivational message that draws upon his passions for conservation and his unique experiences as a musician. If clients are interested, he is available to end his presentation by performing a couple of classic tunes that will have everyone up and dancing on their feet!
