Charlie Cunningham signs with Dumont Dumont

We are delighted to announce that London-based songwriter Charlie Cunningham has signed to Dumont Dumont for his third EP Heights, which will be released early next year.

Previous releases from Charlie Cunningham feel very British yet feature a distinct latin flavour, transporting the listener to Andalusia where he lived & wrote for two years and regularly returns. Cunningham’s songs are laden with delicate flourishes, intricate melodic turns and moments of stark introspection - both expansive and intimate.

“beautiful, yet honest song-writing with such percussive guitar playing that he truly stands out from the crowd.” – The Line Of Best Fit

“It wanders into your head with its charm and likeability but leaves you stunned with how it envelopes you in its warmth.” – The 405

Speaking about signing Charlie, Bohman explains: “I just could not defend myself against such great songs and his strong voice. They stayed with me wherever I went”.
