As for Chubby and the Gang’s latest release ‘Coming Up Tough’, leading band member Charlie Manning Walker explains the meaning behind the lyrics, “‘Coming Up Tough’ is about a family member of mine who ended up going to prison at a very young age for over 20 years. He went in as a kid and spent most of his life in the system.” Making this track a really personal acknowledgment to his relative.
