NEW SINGLE OUT NOW!
NEW ALBUM OUT NOW!
“The Godfathers of authentic rhythm and blues in Norwayâ€, they have been called. Good Time Charlie (GTC) has always been a hard working road band, bringing their energetic music to venues all around the world – Norway, Scandinavia, southern Europe, and lately also to China. The solid backbeat and groove and over-all pure style have also brought GTC praise from legends as Lowell Fulson, Hubert Sumlin, James Cotton and Jimmy Dawkins and John Mayhall. Musically, GTC have always had a dedication to tradition and style and the spirit of the music. They have been as much at home playing the raw Sun sounds of Memphis as the heavy Chess blues of Chicago, the deep New Orleans funk of the 60..s as well as the swampy moods of the Louisiana bayou, the shuffle of Texas R&B and the jump and jive of the West Coast.
With their forth album, “Mojo Energyâ€, the band has taken a step in a new and rawer direction. They now define their musical road as Garage Soul - a mix of the intensity of the 60s garage rock, combined with the explosive and melodic sound of authentic soul music. Get ready for plenty of nasty guitar licks, wailing harmonica, deep bass and rumbling drums! With “Mojo Energy†GTC prove that they still are one of Norway’s most progressive and hard working bands of their genre.
Quotes from some of the reviews:
-Dagbladet (Norway's largest paper): "A vastly energetic collection of party songs in the genre of garage-soul." 5 out of 6
-VG (Norway's second largest paper): "Authentic and superior! Mojo Energy is highly recommended!" 5 out of 6.
-Aftenposten: "Good Time Charlie's garage soul really rocks and groves. They are important carriers of the tradition of the good rock music. Mojo Energy steams of energy, but also gives space for some more quiet moments." 5 out of 6.
-BT: "Brilliant! This is strictly good, old, sparkling rock 'n' roll. Their best album so fare!" 5 out of 6.
-R.O.C.K.: "This is a diverse but rock solid and stylistic confident album." 6 out of 6.
-Kulturo.no: " It is a pity that this band is not bigger than it is, because these guys know their stuff better than most others" 8 out of 10.
