Charlie Worsham
Country singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Charlie Worsham makes music that blends the sound and feel of classic country with rock, rhythm & blues, and bluegrass, conjuring a soulful brew that has impressed fans and critics. His songs are often carefully drawn short stories based on the details of ordinary lives, and he has a sense of humor that keeps his music from getting heavy. The easygoing warmth of his voice suits his many stylistic adventures. Worsham's 2013 debut album was a polished country-pop effort, 2017's Beginning of Things gave him more room to show off the personal side of his songwriting, and the 2021 EP Sugarcane was a rootsy set steeped in both country and rock. The 2023 mini-LP Compadres found him playing with a variety of fellow musicians, including Luke Combs on the single "How I Learned to Pray."
Charlie Worsham was born September 1, 1985 in Jackson, Mississippi, and music became his main interest at a young age. He started on the banjo and was good enough on the instrument by the age of ten to play on-stage at the Ryman Auditorium with bluegrass great Jimmy Martin, and after winning a Junior National Banjo Championship at age 12, he played on-stage at the Grand Ole Opry, an accomplishment for a musician of any age. He consequently learned to play fiddle, mandolin, and guitar, and while living and working as a musician in Nashville was always his goal, he opted to attend the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Boston following his graduation from high school. Eventually Worsham did relocate to Nashville, where he worked on his songwriting and did session work. He also joined the critically lauded and respected Nashville band KingBilly, remaining with the group for nearly three years before deciding to go solo. Signing with Warner Bros. Records, he began recording a debut album. A single from the project, "Could It Be," which Worsham co-wrote, was released early in 2013 and reached 28 on Billboard's Country charts.
Worsham switched directions on his 2017 sophomore set Beginning of Things, emphasizing his wry humor, storytelling, and penchant for soul. In 2019, Worsham released a witty single, "I Hope I'm Stoned (When Jesus Takes Me Home)," which found him backed by Old Crow Medicine Show, and he returned the favor by sitting in for the shows that were recorded for OCMS' 2019 concert recording Live at the Ryman. Worsham also sat in on sessions for Vince Gill, Eric Church, Dierks Bentley, and Carrie Underwood, as he wrote material for his next project. In 2021, Warner Music Nashville released Sugarcane, a six-song EP that showed Worsham was a sure hand at both rootsy country and rousing rock & roll. Two years later, he released Compadres, a collection devoted to collaborations. Luke Combs, Elle King, Dierks Bentley, and Kip Moore were all featured on the mini-EP.
