Charlie Mars, a Mississippi-born singer-songwriter, blends country, folk, and pop with his soulful voice and introspective lyrics.Born in 1974 in Laurel, Mississippi, he was influenced by artists ranging from Michael Jackson to the Violent Femmes.
After moving to Jackson as a teenager, Mars attended Jackson Preparatory School and later Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, where he formed the Charlie Mars Band, releasing Broken Arrow (1995), Born & Razed (1997), and End of Romance (1999).
Struggles with alcohol led him to disband the group and seek a reset in Sweden in 2001. Reinvigorated, he returned to the U.S., releasing his 2004 self-titled album and refining his sound. Mars’ “Texas Trilogy” of albums—Like a Bird, Like a Plane (2009), Blackberry Light (2012), and Money (2014)—produced with Billy Harvey, solidified his reputation as a heartfelt storyteller.
