If you’ve been a fan for years, here are twelve days to catch up and get reacquainted with a good friend. If you are unfamiliar with Charles Ellsworth here are twelve special opportunities to get to know him and his music all leading up until the recording of his first full length record since 2012.
It has been full year for Charles who in this time has released his “Live From The State Room” record, completed a national tour, and released his latest effort and critically acclaimed “Wildcat Chuck Charles” EP. Additionally Ellsworth launched notakickstarter.com, a fundraising platform for his next full length where you can make a minimum $10 donation and immediately download his entire catalog. “I didn’t really feel comfortable asking for money and sending something later down the road, I wanted to be able to offer something immediately in return. The response has been amazing, and with it I’ve been able to make the deposit on recording the next record.” states Ellsworth who is slated to go into the studio with Producer Bob Hoag (The Format, The Ataris) of Flying Blanket Recording in Mesa, AZ in March of 2016.
Biography: Born and raised in the White Mountains of Arizona, Charles Ellsworth first gained an appreciation for a simple, not so distant past. A recent transplant to Brooklyn and self proclaimed “Wandering Man”, Charles has spent the better part of the past four years crashing couch to couch. Making friends & enemies. Talking his way onto bar stages and out of traffic tickets. He’s taken to heart the advice of one of his most influential writers, Roberto Bolaño, “Make new sensations appear…subvert daily life…give it all up again. Hit the road.” His songs wind down a familiar highway. A road more traveled, but with a perspective less explored. His vivid lyrics and near-familiar melodies weave to tell stories of heartbreak and loneliness while shining a light on the perseverance of the human spirit.
