About Me

About the Charlotte Thistle Band:
"I really enjoyed (CT Band's) show at Cafe Allegro last week. I was so pleased that so many people came to hear it. I love the sound of the full band. Please come back and play here again soon!"
- Norman Johnson, Booker, Cafe Allegro (Music Community Resources)*********************************************
About Charlotte's Solo Show:Article in Weekly Volcano, Tacoma
"A true folkie, Thistle works solo with an acoustic guitar, and as an artist she ranks up there with Ani di Franco, but isn’t quite so abrasive. This is not to say she’s all fluff and no substance as she can get political and speak out on such topics as war and social injustices, but she does so with an incredible wit.
"Thistle has no agenda or goals to sell a billion albums; she just wants to sing her songs. It is with this humble mindset she has garnered such fabulous press and has won over so many fans in the Northwest. Her 2005 debut, A Girl With a Guitar, was a thought provoking and insightful recording, which critics salivated over. With simplicity in her music and complexity in her lyrics, she did a balancing act between the two with candor, humor and intelligence."
— Tony Engelhart, Weekly Volcano, Tacoma
