Artist links:
Berlin based singer/songwriter Charlie Grant got his first break in music as a songwriter for hire in London, after landing his first publishing deal with EMI. He got busy writing songs for lots of up and coming talents as well as some bigger names in both Germany and the UK such as former Spice Girl Melanie C, Michael Patrick Kelly, Simply Red, Robert Miles and Leslie Clio, among others.
However, the dream of writing and releasing music as an artist in his own right refused to stay quiet for long and kept pestering him from the back of his mind…so, pulling in favors and forming a new currency based on pints of beer owed to various musician friends and studio owners, Charlie got used to recording in the dead of night and set to work on a set of songs focused on musicianship, storytelling, song craft and an love for 1970’s soft rockers like The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Bread and Tom Petty.
Charlie’s latest release Astronaut was inspired by becoming a father for the first time, realizing that a child can help you see the world through new eyes and let you regain a sense of wonder and a feeling that the world is full of magic.
