Charlie Cunningham

In the organizer's words:

Once again on tour in Germany for a few selected concerts

Charlie Cunningham recently released his fourth studio album entitled "In Light". Produced
It was produced by Luke Smith, who has already worked with artists such as Keaton Henson, Foals and Everything Everything. On this album, Cunningham provides deeper insights into his inner self than ever before.
his innermost self like never before. And that is remarkable - after all, he is known for transforming his emotions and thoughts into delicate, atmospheric soundscapes. His unmistakable mix of indie
folk and singer-songwriter elements has earned him over 500 million streams and a loyal international fan base in recent years.

But this time, Cunningham wanted to take on a new challenge. Inspired - and alarmed - by developments in artificial intelligence, he has gone further than ever before to the core of artistic expression. The result: ten songs, written in five weeks in Tottenham, North London. All recorded in one take with minimal post-production, they take you into a fascinatingly deep stream of consciousness in which Charlie Cunningham sets out in search of truths - his own and those of the world of today and tomorrow. It is a world that does not always inspire confidence, in which we are more than ever in the clutches of the big data octopuses and yet is full of hope as long as there are moments of genuine human connection.

"The best is yet to be / I believe", Cunningham states with conviction in "This I Know". It's not for nothing that the album is called "In Light" and not "In Darkness". The album's sound is also like a light of hope: gently pulsating, organic productions, ethereal melodic arcs and Charlie Cunningham's masterfully played nylon guitar merge with a restrained instrumentation that seems to follow his distinctive voice almost magically. The result is a constant musical dialog in which timbre and dynamics intertwine fluidly - sometimes delicately altered by subtle key changes, sometimes powerfully broken by targeted distortions. Consciously playing with distortion was a central part of the creative process.
