Charlton Adam Phaneuf is a singer/songwriter/acoustic-guitarist based out of Hampton Roads, VA. Having worked professionally in various artistic projects for many years has gained him much experience entertaining audiences. His repertoire consists of a wide range of covers and a growing list of unique originals. As a solo-artist, he is capable of captivating an audience with meaningful songs, passionate performance and the creative approach of blending acoustic instruments w/technology. Often he is seen as a “one-man-band”, incorporating guitar, vocals & various percussion w/phrase sampling, layering grooves that weave an improvisational web catching the attention of his listeners. Some may remember Charlton from the experimental band “On Beyond Zee…” (Trumpeter Records) which toured and supported many well-known acts, while maintaining a following in the 90’s. Currently Charlton is sharing his experience with regional musicians by hosting open stages at various venues encouraging the emergence of new talent. He also continues to hone his “organic-acoustic” style, actively playing clubs, festivals, private parties, etc. He debuted recently at the NORVA with his new group “Thinking CAP Trio”, and is excited to announce the release of their six song EP "spoon-fed hed"!
