About Charley Crockett
Artist Biography
A distant relative of Davy Crockett, Charley Crockett taps into Americana mythos in his music. Originally a blues singer, Crockett strayed into other American roots music the longer his career lasted, incorporating soul, gospel, and especially country. His distinctive, earthy signature can be heard on Lonesome as a Shadow, a 2018 LP that helped him consolidate a following in the Americana circuit. Signing a deal with Thirty Tigers with 2019's The Valley, Crockett became one of the hardest-working musicians in America, establishing a pattern of releasing a covers album under his Lil' G.L. moniker balanced by a collection of original material each year. His 2022 album The Man from Waco expanded his following, snagging three Americana Music Honors & Awards nominations and setting the stage for the dual 2024 releases $10 Cowboy and Visions of Dallas. Crockett made his debut for Island Records the following year with Lonesome Drifter.
