Goodtime Charlie
Goodtime Charlie is a collection of songs written where belief, loss, love, and survival collide. Rooted in lived experience, the record moves from dive bars to prayer, from heartbreak to defiance. This album is a reminder that even when life cuts deep, raise your glass, take the stage, and keep going.
Singles From Goodtime Charlie
Love Of My Life
A love song to the one companion that never leaves–a guitar, a calling, a confession. Love of My Life captures the intimacy between a songwriter and his instrument, where six strings become church, salvation, and survival when silence gets heavy while the world falls away.
The Waste Land
Inspired by T.S. Eliot and modern disillusionment, The Wasteland wrestles with creation, despair, and the search for meaning in a world that keeps predicting its own end. It’s a song about exhaustion with nihilism — and the quiet rebellion of choosing love, art, and life anyway.
Goodtime Charlie
Equal parts celebration and reckoning, Goodtime Charlie is a song about choosing life with your eyes wide open. It honors the friends who didn’t make it home, the nights that saved, and the hard-earned truth that rock and roll isn’t an escape—it’s how some of us stay alive.
One Dance At A Time
A defiant anthem against half-lived lives, One Dance at a Time honors the refusal to sit still while life passes by. It celebrates risk, movement, joy, and misbehavior, a reminder that freedom isn’t found in caution, but in stepping onto the floor and dancing anyway.
The Die Is Cast
The Die Is Cast confronts chaos, doubt, and the voices that live inside our heads, and then answers them with resolve. It’s a song about collective hope, shared strength, and the belief that even when the outcome feels uncertain, betting on tomorrow is still an act of courage.
