The Electricity that haunts the disenchanted but impetuous voices of the Broken American Narrative that exists between Worn Rust Belt Towns, the Shadow of the Southern Gothic, the vast Desert of the Spaghetti Western, and still finds time to have a drink and make girls dance.
You know, rock music.
-----------------------
Chet Vincent & the Big Bend is a roots rock band based out of the empire that is Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Combining the raw electric energy of blues-tinged rock and alt-country with haunting and (sometimes) heartwarming songwriting in the spirit of the American folk tradition, Chet Vincent & the Big Bend reconcile the great divide between intellectualism and accessibility; by ignoring both -- and just writing songs.

"Chet Vincent's band, The Big Bend, offers a rootsy conglomerate that spans three generations of audience appeal." - Pittsburgh City Paper
Thanks so much for making it out to RU7! It was great to see you there. Hope to hear from you soon. Going to try to catch you on March 10th if we get out of the studio in time!
"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.
Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.
The end of wisdom is to dream high enough not to lose the dream in the seeking of it.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.
Commitment leads to action. Action brings your dream closer.
The question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had means, time, influence and educational advantages; the question is what he will do with the things he has. The moment a young man ceases to dream and looks his conditions in the face, and resolves to change them, he lays the corner stone of a solid and honorable success."
