Freudian Press started in 1994, performing regularly for audiences in Chicago and Peoria, IL, as well as clubs and taverns throughout Illinois and parts of Iowa. Charlie is a self-taught musician, thus the reason for his playing a right-handed guitar upside-down, as a lefty. He has written and performed more than 50 original songs to date. Charlie designs and draws posters for Press shows, some of which may be seen in the picture gallery. He is also a published poet. With a catalog of over 100 cover songs in addition to his original compositions, he is never lacking material, and has performed in Freudian Press shows that lasted in excess of 5 hours. He is currently still writing, and recording sessions are in the works.
