ABOUT CHARLES

With roots in North Carolina and now calling Nashville home, Charles Walker embodies the essence of the modern singer/songwriter.

Drawing comparisons to the likes of Ryan Adams, Jason Isbell, and James Taylor, Charles has quickly carved out a niche for himself in the Americana scene. Born and raised in Charlotte, Charles grew up surrounded by the sounds of bluegrass and folk, soaking in the storytelling traditions of the South.

Drawing inspiration from the landscapes of his upbringing, his music weaves together tales of love, loss, and the timeless pursuit of freedom.

Upon relocating to Nashville, Charles began to experiment with new textures and melodies, blending the twang of classic country with the gritty edge of indie rock.

‍“At a glance, Walker’s voice and music sound like a folk-country ballad with a heavy dose of melancholy, similar to that of Noah Gundersen…Further into the songs, Walker’s voice takes on a tone matching more closely with Mike Kinsella (American Football, Owen), creating a balance that Walker has found his niche in.”
