Hi, I'm Charlie. Last year I wrapped up 4 years of touring with Sugar Still. That summer I moved to Yellowstone National Park. Then I went to Dark Songs in Sturgeon Bay Oct 25-26. Last winter I lived and worked in Vail, Colorado. Currently I'm in Keystone, Colorado, working in Breckenridge for the summer of 2020.

I'm actively pursuing other employment opportunities out in the mountain west, but still expect to be involved in music part time.
Down below you can listen to some of my past recordings. More to come I'm sure, I'm a writer after all.

MUSIC BIO:
"Discovered" by Jackson Browne and Pat MacDonald in June 2006 at Steel Bridge Songfest where he exploded onto the midwest songwriter scene with his scathing workingman's sing along Palmer Johnson Yacht and equally joyful summer anthem She's Made For Sunshine, Cheney has gone on to have a dozen more songs included on international compilation CDs since then, released an acclaimed solo CD, a live show recording, and now a new studio CD.

Charlie has a commitment to and love of compelling stories with one over-riding theme: conflict and the choices people make during times of stress. Cheney wraps alternately haunting and bouncing melodies around images of bill collectors on caller ID, lawn chairs left out in the rain, bulging tattoos, strip malled rural towns, sand bagged houses in flood plain, and toupees filled with bar smoke... to paint intimate, tragic, pointed portraits of American life.

Jonathan Spottiswoode wrote "I have now hereby patented the adjective 'charlie cheneyesque' to describe off-beat, dead honest, and beautifully eery songs."


Songs have been included on 3 SteelBridge Songfest compilation CDs, 3 February Album Writing Month compilations, and 3 Holiday Music Motel compilations. All the songs were written and recorded during those festivals.
