Liner notes
Charlie Winston distills his music to its raw essence, a hearty modern gumbo of blues-folk, straight-talking lyricism, and soul, all laced with beatboxing and quirky instrumentation.
From the anthemic ‘Like a Hobo’ to the existential campfire pop of ‘Kick The Bucket’, from the passionately strummed critique of contemporary culture (or lack of it) in ‘Generation Spent’ to the whimsically melancholy ‘My Life As A Duck,’ the album playfully resists easy genre categorization yet maintains a spirited, contagious rootsiness that took off in France in a big way, eventually topping the charts and putting Charlie Winston before packed arenas of fans.
Winston’s Real World debut, Hobo was put together in London, Paris and New York with David Bowie producer Mark Plati at the desk.
