Influences: Charlie Glasspool has performed at festivals across Canada including the Winnipeg Folk Festival, the Calgary Folk Festival, the Vancouver Folk Festival, Mariposa, Harbourfront, Ottawa Blueshammer Fest, and the Peterborough Folk Festival. He has played for capacity crowds in Nanton, Alberta and Avening, Ontario. He has composed music for theatre, modern dance pieces and film. He holds an Honours B.A. (with distinction) from UWO and a B.Ed from the University of Windsor. He has been pursuing post-graduate work for the last 6 years at the prestigious University of Hunter Street ("Canada's Not-So-Great Small University"--Maclean's), narrowly avoiding rustication at every turn. Some other key accomplishments include the creation (with longtime accomplice Mathias Kom) of the smash hit "Twas A Rough Night: Macbeth, the Musical" and the annual Gorgeous Georgie Revue which has welcomed over 100 citizens of Peterborough to sing a song for the first time in public. He also co-wrote (with old friend and fellow county boy Dan Walmsely) the critically acclaimed play "County Boy" about growing up in picturesque and intoxicating Grey County. He has performed on countless albums including 5 releases by The Silver Hearts and the Gorgeous Georgie Revue apiece, and guest spots on work by Al Tuck, Carolyn Mark, Patrick Walsh, The Burning Hell etc.
