Hailing from Melbourne, Australia, with a flourishing career, Charles came to America at the behest of Buddy Guy’s management to perform at Mr. Guy’s legendary club in Chicago.

After numerous trips back to his homeland, the decision was made to make America his home. He never looked back and now almost three decades later this 10-time Grammy elected, Chicago Blues Hall of Fame artist continues to tour the U.S., Canada and Australia.

In 2022 his 15th annual tour will once again take him to the far corners of the U.S., Canada, and Australia. The 2022 tour promises a multitude of concerts and publicity appearances as he performs a whole new list of cities, festivals, and music venues and revisits some favourites from the last 14 tours.
