About Charlie
Charlie Petitt has always been a lover of music. He began writing music at a very early age. He has written numerous songs of various styles and genres. He grew up listening to old-time country music with his parents. Charlie was also active in church choirs. His appreciation for music was influenced by stars like Marty Robbins and Jim Reeves, as well as traditional church hymns. Years of listening to singer-songwriters like James Taylor, Carly Simon and crooners like Andy Williams (and more recently, Josh Groban and Michael Bublé) added new flavor to his writing style.
In college, Charlie sang in a men’s choral group which toured all over the central and southern U.S.
In 2005, Charlie wrote “He’s Not Here” especially for the Easter Celebration service at his local church. It went over so well that Charlie was told by several people that he should create his own CD. So, in short—he did!
“Singing to a group of people always gives me a thrill, so I would like to do more of it,” says Charlie. His goal is to share his musical messages with as many people as possible through the medium of radio, CD sales and live concerts.
