Charles Wesley Godwin

About this event

Following Charles Wesley Godwin’s 2023 critically acclaimed Family Ties — a highly personal, 17-song diary-like LP that was both universally praised and catapulted the West Virginian singer-songwriter to new heights in his career — the rising musician returned in 2025 with a pair of releases: the Lonely Mountain Town EP and Live From The Steel City. The former is a quieter, more contemplative affair than Family Ties, containing some of the most thrilling songs of Godwin’s career. Written principally on the road, Lonely Mountain Town is at its heart a collection of on-the-move snapshots and quiet moments in life set to tune. The latter, Live From The Steel City, is a raucous live record that perfectly encapsulates the energy Charles Wesley Godwin brings to his performances, which last year included a sold out Red Rocks headline debut and a string of dates opening Eric Church’s Free The Machine Tour.

Godwin has been on a steady upward climb following his beloved debut album, 2019’s Seneca. Alongside his longtime band, the Allegheny High, the musician has developed a reputation as a thrilling and beautifully raucous live performer. Godwin has appeared on ESPN’s Sportscenter, performed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and CBS Saturday Sessions.
