Charles Soule Band

About Me

The Charles Soule Band is a New York City-based band led by guitarist and singer Charles Soule. (There's a shocker.) The CSB usually performs as a trio, although it'll go up to 6 pieces if the rock gods demand it. Our music is catchy, singable, jazz-influenced pop/rock - but don't take my word for it. Take a listen to the tunes on the page and see for yourself. The band was formed a bunch of years ago, and plays at a bunch of different places around town. We do a lot of jazz trio gigs, too. Watch the calendar to see where we're playing next, and drop us a line to let us know what you think of the music!

In for a penny, in for a pound

On the first of January, I hopped on a plane over to London, where I met up with my aunt, and we then took a train out to a place called Cheltenham.  That's a spa town about 2.5 hours outside of ...

A show in the china department
