Charlie Cunningham has emerged as a truly under-the-radar success story. Splitting his time between piano and nylon string guitar, Charlie’s melancholic yet rhythmically driven songs have seen him become a regular fixture in Europe’s most prestigious concert halls.

Despite his dyslexia making it near impossible for him to read music, Charlie earned a music degree and by his mid-20s worked a variety of odd jobs and wrote songs in his free time. Eventually, he moved to Seville, immersed himself in Flamenco music and focussed intensely on his guitar playing. Planning to stay for 3 months, he stayed for 3 years. Once home, Charlie found work playing in bars across London and Oxford -—eventually returning to songwriting. Charlie has subsequently released 3 albums and 4 eps which have garnered over half a billion streams.

The new single, **"Happening Lately"** produced by Luke Smith (Keaton Henson, Foals, Everything Everything), is the latest clue as to what is coming next for Cunningham. The track blends his signature intricate guitar work with poignant lyrics rich with introspective resilience.
