Chuck Wicks hit the Nashville music scene in 2007 with his Top 5 hit, “Stealing Cinderella,” off his debut album, Starting Now. In 2008, he starred on the eighth season of the ABC hit reality show Dancing With The Stars, making it all the way to the semi-finals. Following his early successes, Wicks decided to take some time to focus on writing and to get back to the simplicities of life he learned while growing up and working on a potato farm in small town Smyrna, Delaware.
Wicks’ love for hunting and the outdoors has landed him on multiple Outdoor Channel hunting shows and vignettes. Now, Wicks hosts his own show on the Outdoor Channel, The Hunt Club, in addition to his morning co-hosting duties on America’s Morning Show.
Wicks’ new EP Rough was released in April 2012 and is currently available on iTunes. His lead single, “Salt Life,” debuted in the summer of 2013. Wicks partnered with the ocean lifestyle brand, Salt Life, to give 20,000 fans a complimentary copy of the EP with their purchase of Salt Life branded products, which include apparel, headwear, bags, sunglasses, sunscreen and other beach gear.
2014 is shaping up to be an exciting year for Wicks. His recently released single “Us Again” quickly rose to the Top 10 on the iTunes Country Singles Chart in its first week with fans and radio loving the new music. A new album is due out later this year.
