Hobo

Charlie Winston

Charlie distills his music to its raw essence, a hearty modern gumbo of blues-folk, straight-talking lyricism, and soul, all laced with beatboxing and quirky instrumentation. From the anthemic 'Like a Hobo' to the existential campfire pop of 'Kick The Bucket', from 'Generation Spent's passionately strummed critique of contemporary culture (or lack of it) to the whimsically melancholy 'My Life As A Duck', the album playfully resists easy genre categorization yet maintains a spirited, contagious rootsiness that as taken off in France in a big way, eventually topping the charts. 'Hobo' was put together in London, Paris and New York with David Bowie producer Mark Plati at the desk.
