Charley Crockett's hard times inspire soulful, genre-defying music

[@socalroadrunners9950]

My home is in my head

[@beachnap]

"I'm always treating it like the guy playing out of a guitar case on a corner" - and that, my friends, is why he truly is the hardest working man in show business. He puts his soul into his work, and puts out so much music, with so many solid shows. This man earns every fan the hard way and I'm going to remain a loyal fan of his for as long as he's rolling. We love you, Charley!

[@Peter-rg4ng]

This man and his band are "pure classic Americana". He will go down in history.

[@Decencyisfree]

Seeing him live was amazing. He and his music really speak to people. The pain, the hope…the authenticity is palpable. The audience was more present at his show than any I’ve ever experienced, but not only that, they were present with each other. He welcomes it all, struggle and joy to be felt, together, side by side. Feeling seen. Unity was what it felt like. (Which right now in America is rarer than gold and even more precious.) Thank you Charley for persevering and sharing your soul with us. We need ya

[@tonygallo1104]

very well said

[@ScottSmithMusic]

Right on.

[@cclark3452]

He really is amazing!

[@sethp0411]

On the bucket list to see this guy. He is a true music hero for these days.

[@GhettoWerewolf]

To your point on unity, I saw him at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville last week, and it was, without a doubt, the greatest experience I've ever had at a concert. I talked to the people around me, who had traveled many miles, like we'd known each other for years. We even hugged at the end of the show. I'll never see those people again, but we experienced something together that will stick with me forever.

[@thelucasstorm]

Charley is the real deal and inadvertently wrote an anthem for 2020 in Welcome to Hard Times.

[@garrettviewegh9028]

God knows those were indeed hard times. Charly put it best in that song what we all felt that year.

[@wheninrome42]

Charley is the truth

[@ComedyBros5]

Charley is one of the few artists that deserves the spotlight as much as he does. He’s born for it! And has one of the coolest, wildest stories I’ve ever heard. Easily the most entertaining show a person could go to these days!!

[@personreanimation]

seen him 3 times in one year, definitely doing it again.

[@torreyintahoe]

me too. First show post pandemic.

[@justingarretson2054]

Me too

[@Auntkekebaby]

My third show this year is this week.

[@mikes.1961]

I don't know how I missed this guy over the years. I was instantly hooked as soon as I stumbled on his music and wondered why he didn't hit his stride sooner. Premium talent and an incredible songwriter.

[@freeman5110]

I love Crockett's sound! He's brought back that old southern twang with a modern twist is astounding.

[@loading7371]

I’ve been a Charley Crockett fan for several years. I tell everyone I know about him. Keep on rocking G.L.

[@garrettviewegh9028]

Thank the lord for keeping Charley with us to serenade our ears with that classic country tunes for years to come.

[@bobbyflores6228]

Charley Crockett is legit! Saw him live in concert. One of the best concerts I've ever been too.

[@danielcallahan5404]

Charley Crockett definitely deserved the the award for Americana artist of the year. He is awesome!

[@aaronparr7639]

He's such a stud! I heard one of his songs on Joe Pickett tv show.

[@carsonbowles9302]

Thank you New Orleans

[@Aurelisk]

Saw him in Fresno yesterday. That guy is amazing!!! Everyone, do yourself a favor and see how fun he is to watch! Best concert I've been to.

[@Auntkekebaby]

I'm seeing him in Vegas in July. So excited.

[@valerioliva9872]

Seen him 4 times and counting ! One of my absolute favorites !

[@Crystal-ew8qs]

I’ve seen Charley live 7 times over the past 3 years. His music will always hold a special place in my heart. You have a fan for life Mr. Crockett and the Blue Drifters 🐊 💙

[@willemarends4103]

Play his Music everday thank you Charlie

[@williewillbby]

Wish the interview was longer lol this guy is a legend!

[@holdfaster2000]

Watch the music city usa documentary

[@TrevDawg4]

Saw him and his band at Railbird in Kentucky this year, they put on one hell of a show! This guy is awesome

[@dawsondudark]

Classic country in the modern day. Saw him open for Stapleton and he was fantastic

[@Auntkekebaby]

He got a lot of material for lyrics. This IS a songwriter. He's amazing and the most compelling performer because of that street drive and hard times. I wish that he would perform closer to NYC. Edit: He's in Central Park opening for Willie this Sep!

[@MaiKai_Makena_Property_Advisor]

Love this guy ❤❤❤

[@katrinagrammer5861]

Charlie is blessed from the Lord with amazing musical talent and an incredible will to survive. In this video we only see a small glimpse of the hardship and suffering with his family pain in which he is dealing with emotionally; and how hard he had to persevere to climb the ladder in his professional career without settling for what he was not yet comfortable His strength and courage to move forward overcoming such hardship is amazing! My 35 year old son sent me a sample of Charley Crockett music to listen to via “Spotify” when I could not pull it up I went to my you tube music and searched His random songs immediately enjoying his music very much! He has an amazing voice! And if he writes his own songs which I think he does, again you see his talent is remarkable! God has truly blessed this man and I will be praying for Charley Crockett 😁🙏🏻❤️

[@troy.d]

Thank you, Mr. Crockett.

[@acevedo6953]

To be honest this video is REALLLLLLYYYY GOOOD

[@selophane43]

I had no idea who this guy was 3 months ago and didn’t even care for modern country. But now I’m hooked hard. Saw him in Harrisburg and it was a blast. Throwback country.

[@Angryjiujitsuguyoffical]

MANS A LEGEND

[@eclecticmusica]

Somebody please explain to Jason Aldean - this is how country music is supposed to sound like.

[@HermanaSilencio]

Spoken nothing but the truth right there dan, nothing but the truth

[@michaelswift9408]

This guy is damned good.

[@koolz4094]

Amazing artist !! I have followed him for a few years now....Wow, the real deal....Next Johnny Cash, maybe bigger...

[@louieo.blevinsmusic2011]

From WesternAF to CBS? Dang. Good job, Charley!

[@jparra]

I love Charlies music.

[@DBoone123]

Glad to see him getting well deserved attention

[@nonamejones2321]

I love this guy! Such a great performer.

[@theguitarjohnshow]

I'm really impressed with his story and his music

[@MusicOrLoseItTVPlaylists]

Crockett was one of Music Or Lose It's choices for Breakthrough Music Entertainer

[@2009blahblah]

Love a lot of this man's music honest fight is my favorite

[@neintoten6155]

Damn it all, anyway! Though I'm not even quite sure why, I really don't want to like this guy, yet I genuinely do. There's just something very unique about him; a sort of riveting allure and nostalgia to his music that I likewise can't put my finger on that keeps me coming back. Regardless, I hope he sticks around for a very long time. Here's to you, Charley!

[@kenpstok151]

Love Charlie. Come through Phoenix more please

[@marcosluna7792]

Bro asked him "hows it feel to get a break". Charley sings the blues man, he aint never catching a break
