A stunning debut from a teen guitar hero, brimming with the shadows and style of youth.
A bridge between new wave and American rock. Charlie Sexton's ephemeral aesthetic.
His debut album, released at the tender age of 16, was produced by Keith Forsey and produced an edgy sound reminiscent of Billy Idol. His signature song, "Beat's So Lonely," is known worldwide and is imprinted on the landscape of the 1980s, carrying the lyricism and melancholy of his youth.
