Charlie Winston

Charlie Winston1978年出生于英格兰西南部的康沃尔郡。英国最美丽的海岸汇集于此，于是在这里长大的人自然有了一种随性地、天然地、不雕琢的美。Charlie的音乐本身并不拘泥于吉他民谣，他更多地选择了有Band合作的音乐模式。3年前，他的首张专辑《Mischifus》因其独创另类曲风获得极高评价，而去年的《Hobo》则让他成为业内炙手可热的明星音乐人。 　　整体来看，Charlie Winston的歌词写得都很生活化，很口语化，很流浪感。充满一种寂寥，一种不用思索就可以感悟到的人生。Charlie Winston的歌声辨识度很高，有些懒懒地唱法和不经意加入的口哨、哼唱，反倒让那种随意的气质更加吸引人。 　　Charlie Winston的人，他的歌，他的专辑，就用这五个字可以概括：流浪的气质
