Charlie Smith

My name might be common, but my style is alternative. I’m Charlie Smith a raw, honest, singer-songwriter from Hampshire, UK. I host and perform at my own shows at venues such as The Railway Inn, The Attic & The Arthouse. In October 2023 I embarked on my first solo tour of northern England and released my latest Live EP ‘Southampton Sessions’. ♫♪♪

The Hinton Cleeves Conspiracy (The HCC)

Southampton’s The HCC come roaring back to their second home in Winchester. This is a stripped-back, acoustic version of their full band set but keeping faith with the killer riffs and heavier influences. Not heard them yet? Well, these guys carry the banner of psychedelic rock comfortably alongside the influences you would expect from a collective of party people schooled on the 90’s indie scene! ♫♪♪
