It must be a crazy world when “authentic” is a term used to separate an artist from the pack. This offering from Charlie Parr comes courtesy of 1922 Blues, his first single released on Tin Angel Records. Charlie Parr is a folk and country blues musician who is routinely labeled “authentic” and “the real deal” by fans and critics alike. Charlie shows up with a lived-in rasp of a voice, National resonator and 12-string acoustic guitar, and a banjo. His albums have received critical acclaim and have sold well into the thousands. He’s toured the UK, Ireland and Scotland countless times, as well as pert ‘near every nook and cranny of the United States. He was a guest musician on A Prairie Home Companion (April 2004), starred in Travis Wilkerson’s independent film, “Who Killed Cock Robin?” (2005, also contributed to the soundtrack), and has had his UK releases represented on the UK independent music charts.
