Searching for Charlie Owen in Canberra (music and spoken word) with White Knuckle Fever

Charlie Owen’s solo shows under the “Searching for Charlie Owen” banner have attracted full houses and warm reviews.

Long considered “a guitarist’s guitarist”, the music and spoken words sets have taken audiences backstage via Charlie’s warm, funny and sometimes sad reflections on the people he’s met and played with.

The multi-instrumentalist is doing it all again in August with select shows in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. The Canberra show at Smiths Alternative on 1 August features the wondefully bawdy White Knuckle Fever in support.

From his influential work with Tex Don and Charlie, Beasts of Bourbon and The New Christs to collaborations with Louis Tillett, Paul Kelly, Tendrils and Working Class Ringos. Charlie has consistently pushed the boundaries of his craft whilst captivating audiences with his ferocious and at times tender performances.

With a career spanning four decades there are a lot of back pages to explore. Don’t miss these special shows and the opportunity to share Charlie’s passion, up close and personal.

Finding Charlie Owen is proudly presented by i94bar.com and Soundpressing Records.
