From his Dove Award winning gospel albums to his genre-defining Southern rock anthems and his CMA Award-winning country hits, few artists have left a more indelible mark on America’s musical landscape than Charlie Daniels. An outspoken patriot, beloved mentor to young artists and still a road warrior at age 77, Charlie has parlayed his passion for music into a multi-platinum career and a platform to support the military, underprivileged children and others in need.
In Charlie’s 50 plus years of entertaining, he has had a song recorded by Elvis Presley, toured with the Earl Scruggs Review, Leonard Cohen, produced the Youngbloods, played with two former Beatles (Ringo Starr and George Harrison) and that was all before he became known as the “Kingfish of Southern Rock” in the 70’s. His signature song, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” topped both country and pop charts, bringing him international acclaim.
