Over the past couple of years Charles Wesley Godwin has steadily built up his career to a tipping point where for it to grow even larger, he was going to need help. While management, publishing and touring promoters can take a rising artist far, the partnership with a record label usually is the last step to building the career as high as it can go. Rather than partner with label partners in NY or LA as artists like Zach Bryan have, Charles Wesley Godwin partnered with Nashville-based indie powerhouse Big Loud Records for the next chapter in his career.
“I’m thrilled to partner up with Big Loud Records for this next chapter of my career. Their enthusiasm and belief in my music matches that of my family, friends, bandmates, and team,” says Godwin. “Ultimately that is what is most important. It’s been an unbelievably good experience getting to know Seth [England], Nate [Yetton], and the entire Big Loud staff. I’m so excited for what’s ahead and can’t wait to share new music with the world.”
“We’re honored to be partnering with Charles Wesley Godwin in this capacity,” shares England, Big Loud Partner / CEO. “I first heard about Charles last year from my brother Eric; fatefully, the timing aligned perfectly with when our company was exploring endeavors in alternative genres, branching out into Americana, indie, folk, roots, and more. I was blown away immediately by Charles’ undeniable talent, grit, songwriting ability, and distinct perspective; it truly sets him apart. Big Loud is excited to stand proudly with him and his team as we launch a new chapter for our company and bring this body of music to the world.”
“Charles Wesley Godwin is a force to be reckoned with as a songsmith, in the studio, and on stage,” Yetton, adds Big Loud Records VP of A&R. “We are more than fortunate that Charles would trust Big Loud Records with this incredibly exciting new chapter in his exploding career. The best is yet to come for him.”
Charles Wesley Godwin will be releasing new music in the coming weeks and months while also heading out on tours with the aforementioned Zach Bryan and fellow blue collar troubadour Cody Jinks. Godwin was raised and currently lives in Morgantown, West Virginia and was influenced by artists like Willie Nelson, Chris Knight, John Prine, Ryan Bingham and Kris Kristofferson and has already released two critically-acclaimed (and heavily streamed) LPs in Seneca and How The Mighty Fall. He’s also released a live recording which shows him in his element.
