Performance Notes | Charlie Wood is a talented and versatile singer, songwriter and keyboardist whose eclectic musical style incorporates elements of popular music, jazz, blues and traditional r&b. Born in Memphis, TN in 1967, Charlie studied classical piano from an early age and jazz piano in high school and college. He spent 1990 on the road as keyboardist for legendary blues guitarist Albert King, with whom he toured the U.S. and Europe.
In the UK to promote the release of his CD "Flutter and Wow" on Archer Records, Charlie Wood is a unique combination of singer/songwriter and authentic soul jazz ambassador. Featuring his wry, thoughtful lyrics, his dazzling ability on the mighty Hammond organ, and his trademark smokey, soulful vocals, a performance from the Charlie Wood Trio means plenty of original songs from his latest release and his previous records, as well as a few of his favourite blues/jazz/R&B classics. |
