Dear Charlie,

It was so exciting to speak with you, Mr. Producer and Singer-Songwriter!

You painted a vivid picture of the New York scene, including a great Thai restaurant and a community performance series at the Loser's Lounge. Sounds like a great place to enjoy talking and music. 

Thank you for sharing your formative childhood experiences, family influences, and the impact David Bowie had on you. It was great to learn about the new record, 'Stories From The Borderlines,' and how you built these songs from programmed synth textures, knowing when to add or delete parts, and by inviting important collaborators to help deepen the arrangements. I love how you create songs that have "a place in time" and push the listener to consider the album's thematic concerns. Great stuff!


Like New York City, thanks for bringing a great vibe to our conversation and your body of work.
