Often over looked because of the 9 albums he’s put out in the short 6 years since A Stolen Jewel. Especially for all the fans he’s picked up along the way

“Charley Crockett was destined to be an outsider. A mixed-race kid born into poverty in the Rio Grande Valley, he found refuge in the in-between spaces, first among the squatters of New Orleans and then as a busker in New York’s subways. He couldn’t have been anything but a blues musician(Although he is much more than a blues musician today). After a decade spent on the lam, waiting out a bad record contract in Los Angeles, Crockett is back home in Texas. His new record, A Stolen Jewel, is rich with Southern flavor, a musical gumbo of Delta blues, honky-tonk, gospel and Cajun jazz. It’s the manifestation of a hard-lived life and it’s earned the attention of many”
