Premiere: Chuck Ragan – Something May Catch Fire

Americana songwriter returns...

The root, the source of so much American music is a direct contact with emotion.

All thriller, no filler… it's a path which runs through country, rockabilly and on through punk, neatly distilled in the form of Chuck Ragan.

Fourth album 'Till Midnight' drops on March 24th, and – as the songwriter readily admits – it's an album informed by the process, the thrill of falling in love.

Ahead of this, Clash is able to premiere new video 'Something May Catch Fire'. Rippling with a rare immediacy, the clip captures the energy of a Chuck Ragan performance.

"I felt they captured an essence of love that we’ve all have either known ourselves or have dreamed of knowing one day" he mused recently. "It’s easy to find inspiration when you’re with someone you fall in love with over and over again throughout your lives…"
