The performance video collection highlights fan favorites and new arrangements
Charles Wesley Godwin delivers The Hometown Sessions to fans with weekly performance video drops on YouTube. The series includes fan-favorite songs as well as reworked versions of beloved live show staples. It kicks off with the release of his rendition of Tyler Childers’ “Whitehouse Road.”
Teaming up with his longtime band, The Allegheny High, Godwin collaborated with director Justin Clough, who shot the performances at The Metropolitan Theater in Godwin’s hometown of Morgantown, West Virginia. “It’s one of my favorite venues in my hometown,” Godwin shares. “We chose some of our favorite songs to perform live and even reworked a few. Can’t wait for y’all to see these!”
The Hometown Sessions span Godwin’s career and feature songs such as “All Again” from his breakout album Family Ties, tracks from his most recent EP Lonely Mountain Town, including the title track and “It’s The Little Things,” as well as songs from his breakthrough debut Seneca – “Hardwood Floors,” “Seneca Creek,” “Strawberry Queen” – and more.
In response to the devastating flash floods in South and Central Texas earlier this month, Godwin donated 100% of profits from a 24-hour merch sale to benefit The Kerr County Flood Relief Fund to aid in recovery efforts.
Godwin, known for his electric live shows, continues his The Lonely Mountain Town Tour through November. Alongside staple summer festivals at home and abroad, headline shows at iconic venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Godwin, and The Allegheny High are billed for Bob Dylan’s Outlaw Music Festival later this month, along with support dates for Eric Church and Whiskey Myers in the fall.
