  • Bio

    .Charlie Ray is a songwriter, guitarist and singer.. -- raised on Rock & Roll, but knocked sideways by the music of Steve Earle and Dwight Yoakam and kicked over the alt-country cliff for good by hearing Gram Parsons. If you're a big fan of Rascal Flatts, Taylor Swift or Kenny Chesney, you have definitely stumbled onto the wrong page. But if you prefer your country a lot less slick, and a little less good-looking, read on. .... Charlie is a long-time radio veteran, currently on-air at ....K-FROG Country, 95.1.. in San Bernardino, California. First and foremost a songwriter, he's a storyteller who's been around long enough to know a good tale when he hears one. He currently has more than 100 songs to his credit . . . and a few that aren't a credit to anyone..... ..Linda Washington.. is a schoolteacher, a gifted singer and a willing partner in crime. She has a crystal-clear alto voice, Emmylou's gift for harmony, Patsy's way with a lyric and -- fortunately for Charlie -- Tonto's sense of loyalty..... ..Together ..they perform regularly in Southern California, especially in the High Desert area that they both call home. On any given night you can find them singing sad country songs in sweet harmony, with voices that seem to say . . . "Buy something, willya?". .. ......Gram Parsons' She - Charlie Ray & Linda Washington, K-FROG KFRG...... .. .. .. .. .. ......Charlie Ray.. | ..MySpace Music Videos.... .. ......Hey Gram Parsons fans!.. .. .... ..
