Details: An imposing physical presence is not the only outsize feature of Popa Chubby. The singer and guitar-slinger from the Bronx, also known as Ted Horowitz, has for 30-plus years projected a colorful and compelling persona built on songwriting smarts, instrumental virtuosity, and soul. If that hasn't exactly made him larger than life, it has helped him rise above the clichés and conventions of the blues-rock genre. It's no different with his new album. Out March 31, 2021 Tin Foil Hat is Popa Chubby's lockdown record, recorded in pandemic-induced isolation in New York's Hudson Valley with the artist himself playing all the instruments. On it he conveys the disparate emotions stirred by the past year, and his reactions to these most trying and turbulent of times carry a universal resonance.
