Charlie Cunningham - Lines

Release Date:01/27/2017;Notes:Vinyl LP pressing. 2017 release from the British musician. For the past two years, Cunningham's career has been on a steady upward trajectory. He's filled venues both here and abroad - at his headlining shows or alongside the likes of King Creosote, Beirut, and Rodriguez. Selling out shows all over Europe and his only UK show to date at St Giles-In-The-Field was sold out and in February earlier this year. His popularity also reflected in Spotify plays in excess of 5.7 million. It was a move to Seville to hone his guitar technique that catalyzed Cunningham's creativity. Taking the percussive qualities of flamenco, he began to thread his melodies and lyrics together producing his first EP to critical acclaim. Cunningham's playing was sharp enough to carve songs laden with delicate flourishes, intricate melodic turns, and moments of stark introspection, songs that are both expansive and intimate. "The whole ability to write songs is probably in a lot more people than they think. A lot of people can probably do it it's just hard knowing how to start,' he admits. "I think what slowed me down was just over-thinking every possible thing. So now I know that if something feels right to just trust that.";Track List:1. An Opening;2. I Can Be;3. Born;4. Lines;5.
