INTERVIEW: Charlie Castell

As the world watched the events of the U.S. election unfold last week, reactions from Kamala Harris supporters ran the gamut from outrage to sorrow to shock and disgust. Within tumult throughout the decades, artists have always found the perfect way to capture sentiments of what we’re feeling just at the perfect time. One such primed album reaching our ears when we needed it most is Charlie Castell’s impassioned latest effort ‘Beautiful Apocalypse’.

‘Beautiful Apocalypse’ melds a blend of indie and Brit pop influences with hard hitting political themes that accomplish the rare feat of making socially conscious songs you’ll want to keep on repeat. I had the pleasure of chatting with LA based British reared Charlie recently about his latest project, his involvement with music education, early music memories of Buddy Holly and The Beatles and WTF moments with Tony Blair and Coldplay.
