Charlie Smith presents
Acoustic Night at The Railway
Charlie Smith presents another fantastic line up of local acoustic acts on a Sunday!
Tickets
A booking fee of 11% will be added to each ticket order. This fee goes straight to maintaining the venue.
The Guillotine Union Boys
The wokeabilly band that neoliberal authoritarians love to hate. Join the Reverend Sam and Bo Gallows’ picket line as they bring their brand of hometruth agit-folk to the masses. With lightning-quick finger picking, stomping rhythms, and rallying rebel yells, this act is for the many, not the few.
Pegasuses
Bittersweet indie/alt-folk duo Pegasuses like to make you confused about whether you should be laughing or crying. Based in Southampton, they’ve been working with producer Russell Marsden (Band of Skulls/Snook Studio) on their forthcoming debut album, Sea of Joy. Expect dual harmonies, some darkly comic lyrics and maybe even a pedal steel.
Charlie Smith
My name might be common, but my style is alternative. I’m Charlie Smith a raw, honest, singer-songwriter from Hampshire, UK. I host and perform at my own shows at venues such as The Railway Inn, The Attic & The Arthouse. In October 2023 I embarked on my first solo tour of northern England. My latest EP ‘Here He Comes Now’ was released on the 24th of May. Clocking in at just shy of 10 minutes it is an express 5 Track acoustic punk EP. The theme of the EP is the idea that certain things cannot be erased or forgotten. The lyrics evoke feelings of introspection, reflection, and renewal, as the individual grapples with their inner turmoil and seeks to find solace. All tracks were recorded on the Tascam Model 12 at my mini-home studio. Featuring a single mic technique with minimal use of effects to simulate an authentic, intimate sound.
D’Kenzion
Ged, a singer-songwriter for over forty years and a published author with a series of books ‘Neander and the Dark Matter’. Over the years he has written music for his own and other bands, plus for two-stage shows performed in the Hoxton theatre, London.
With a blues/rock influence, D’ KenZion is a tilt of the soft cloth cap to the works of Charles Dickens. The songs whilst light and groovy, are a comment on the injustice in the world today and a tribute to the works of Mr D.
