Charlie Sizemore Band: Good NewsThe Charlie Sizemore Band: Good News, Coming 08/14/2007 !
Good News is the first Rounder Records release from singer, songwriter, and vocalist Charlie Sizemore, an artist much respected and loved in the world of bluegrass for both his musical talents and his unshakeable yet immensely likeable integrity. His reputation as “The Real Deal” is based equally on his considerable musical talents and his resolute commitment to doing things the right way, and has only added luster to his place as one of the finest bluegrass artists of his generation. Soulful and heartfelt, Charlie Sizemore’s singing is capable of bringing a new level of emotion and insight to songs new and old. An equally powerful writer, Sizemore’s compositions have been recorded by Ralph Stanley, Jimmy Martin, and Doyle Lawson. His first new album in five years, Good News is compelling proof that Sizemore is his own best interpreter - and that Good News is always worth waiting for.

“Charlie Sizemore was one of my top lead singers that I have had through the years. Charlie knows music and knows how to make it right. I would highly recommend this CD.” Dr. Ralph Stanley
