Third Rail is supported by Hello Goodbye Records – A Mom & Pop Record Shop on East Market Street, Charlottesville.
With influences in the soulful expressions of indie-folk, neo-soul, and alternative rock, Tre. Charles invites you into his world with an expressive blend of warm undertones, profound and powerful lyrics, and emotive vocalizing. Growing up along the East Coast from city to city, Tre. Charles has been exposed to a myriad of different customs and cultures. It is from these experiences that he has cultivated a sound of his own, which pays homage to his nomadic upbringing and lifestyle. With hints of avant-garde R&B, modern indie flares, and ambient soul, Charles’ honest & thought provoking music has the ability to make every performance feel like a transformative experience.
Pitchfork contributor Brian Howe has described Tre. Charles’s sound as “stretched and shifted vocal harmonies, and long-tailed reverbs and delays that hum like cathedrals.” Howe also goes on to say “This labyrinth of sound, blurred at the edges yet sharply etched in the middle, is where we find his just-woke-up voice and glinting guitar, his fingers tweezing jazzy splinters from thick barre chords. The overall effect is calming, but in a transfixing, time-halting way, like dancing candlelight.”
