Haddox making music — one song, one gig at a time

June. 9—Chris Haddox, the WVU professor, community activist and singer-songwriter, found out a few weeks back that he was the cause of an international incident.

Oh, it was OK. This particular incident, for the record (no pun intended), was of the sonically good kind.

Somebody in England heard one of his songs online.

The guy liked what he heard.

So much, in fact, that he rang up a station in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on the hunch that the on-air staff might like it, too.

They did—and the station’s program director reached out to Haddox.
