Biography
Chagall Guevara is an American rock band formed in 1989 by solo artist Steve Taylor, guitarists Dave Perkins and Lynn Nichols (from the 1970s Phil Keaggy band), bassist Wade Jaynes, and drummer Mike Mead. The band was named after Communist revolutionary Che Guevara and painter Marc Chagall to imply the meaning "revolutionary art". All of the band members had histories within the Christian music industry, but the band was an effort to depart from the CCM industry. Despite this, the band still performed at the exclusively Christian music festival Cornerstone, and had their music (albeit against their wishes) distributed through Christian bookstores. The group formed in 1989 and broke up in early 1993. A Kickstarter drive appeared in August 2020 to release unavailable and rare live and studio material, resulting in the release of two new albums.
Following the successful Kickstarter campaign, the band performed its first live show in 30 years on July 2, 2022 at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN.
