## Caption

Who is the man behind the name Vic Chesnutt? Vic was an American singer-songwriter from Athens, Georgia. His breakthrough album was Sweet Relief II: Gravity of the Situation, a charity record of alternative artists covering his songs. His 
musical style is described as "skewed, refracted version of Americana that is haunting, funny, poignant, and occasionally mystical, usually all at once." 

Injuries from a 1983 car accident left him partially paralyzed; he used a wheelchair and had limited use of his hands. Vic is beloved in the Athens community and beyond. We are honored to share his legacy and thank his wife, Tina, for her support of this award. #songwriter #VicChesnuttAward #athensga
