Charlie Oxford
Charlie Oxford grew up in Dallas, Texas and was first inspired to pick up the guitar at the age of 12 from listening to the music of local Texan legends like Buddy Holly and Stevie Ray Vaughan, as well as the anthems of the 90’s from musicians like Dave Matthews and Ben Harper. Through his high school years, Charlie forged a unique guitar playing style that reflected the character of his early influences. After moving to New Orleans to study music, Charlie’s folk-pop songwriting was infused with the sounds of New Orleans and the local talent beside him. Eventually, his Texas singer-songwriter style united with the posture of classic New Orleans and the attitude of progressive pop. Rich electric blues giving way to pop-driven acoustic hooks create a music style that is truely his own. During the fall of Hurricane Katrina Charlie made a quick stop in Austin, Texas for a term and then headed off to Edinburgh, Scotland where he met up with Fredag Music Group playing small gigs to Scottish crowds. Charlie returned to New Orleans for a year to finish school and went back to Edinburgh to continue where he left off. Charlie’s debut album Conscious From Center was released November of 2007 and is available on iTunes as well as CharlieOxford.com. He is now back in Texas playing to the people that first gave him a voice.
