Charles Wesley Godwin with Special Guest, Danno Simpson

ollowing Charles Wesley Godwin’s 2023 critically acclaimed Family Ties a highly personal, 17-song diary-like LP that was both universally praised and catapulted the West Virginian singer-songwriter to new heights in his career the rising musician now returns with a stunning 7-track EP, Lonely Mountain Town, due out February 28, via Big Loud. A quieter, more contemplative affair than Family Ties, Lonely Mountain Town contains some of the most thrilling songs of Godwin’s career. Written principally on the road, Lonely Mountain Town is at its heart a collection of on-the-move snapshots and quiet moments in life set to tune: these are tales of a traditional country-songwriting mindset.
