Charles Ellsworth’s New EP “Wildcat Chuck Charles” Out Today!

After successfully premiering single, “A Packed Suitcase” via Under The Gun Review, and the EP in its’ entirety via New Noise Magazine, Ellsworth is ready to release his masterpiece to the world.

Wildcat Chuck Charles features an Americana sound with complimentary touches of blues and rock and roll that take listeners on a deep and thought provoking journey as lyricist, Ellsworth paints a picture with wonderfully poetic lyrics carefully chosen for each track.

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. Charles has subtle way of exploring the idea that even when all seems lost, there is always a sliver of hope. Declan Ryan of Independent Clauses (www.independentclauses.com) called his and Vincent Draper’s recent release Salt Lake City: A Love Story, “a triumph for american songwriting…blending outlaw grit with a raw streak of self-awareness.” His ability to go from a stomp-your-boots anthem reminiscent of Springsteen, to a simple love song in the vein of Townes Van Zandt assures that it won’t be long before his name, lyrics, and melodies are stuck in music lovers head’s everywhere.
