Leesburg Listening Room: Silver Charm's Place, Justin Trawick

Join us as the Leesburg Listening Room concert series returns!

Bringing regional talent to our community and helping make our historic downtown a destination for arts and cultural events, one show at a time.

This evening will feature Silver Charm's Place, a project fronted by Leesburg-local Wyatt Nichols, and DC-based artist Justin Trawick.

Wyatt Nichols is a former frontman/bandmember of various projects including: Where's Denmark?, Vvuumm, Acid Mt Raven Rock, and now he takes center stage for his new solo project - Silver Charm's Place. His first album with this indie slacker rock project, Life in a Locket, was released in 2025. You may recognize him from regular past gigs at Crooked Run Fermentation in downtown Leesburg, now come experience his music in a stripped-down solo setting.

Justin Trawick has been performing in the Washington DC area and along the East Coast since 2006, citing musical influences like Bob Schneider, Greensky Bluegrass, The Tallest Man on Earth, G. Love, Old Crow Medicine Show, and David Gray. In February of 2014, Trawick won “Song of the Year” at the Washington Area Music Awards for his solo recording of “All the Places That I’ve Been,” which can be downloaded on iTunes as a single along with his five other solo records and EPs. In June of 2015, Trawick released his first single, “Goodbye,” under the band name “Justin Trawick and the Common Good,” written about the search for direction and belonging in a world that always feels one step ahead of you. In January of 2018, “Justin Trawick and The Common Good” released their first EP, “The Riverwash EP,” which features Norah Jones’ guitarist Adam Levy. In 2020 the band released the single “Back of the Line” during the coronavirus quarantine and was featured on Reuters, CNN, Al Jazeera, Washington Post, Washingtonian Magazine, Parade Magazine, American Songwriter Magazine, Voice of America and Virginia Living Magazine for Trawick’s livestream series and secret backyard concert series created during the pandemic. On August 27th, 2021 Trawick released the single “I’m Doing Alright”, whose chorus he’d been singing as a theme song on Facebook Live and his secret backyard shows throughout the entirety of the pandemic. Starting January 11th, 2023 the band has released a new single every eight weeks including “These Days”, “Life in the Middle”, “Standing on the Edge”, and “Five and Dime”.

Trawick and the band have performed for DelFest, Charm City Bluegrass Festival, Kingman Island Bluegrass Festival, Appaloosa Roots Music Festival, Floyd Yoga Jam, Wolf Trap, NHL Stadium Series Game in Raleigh NC at Carter Finley Stadium, TedxEast in NYC at the City Winery, and TedxPennsylvaniaAvenue in DC at the Newseum. Additionally, Trawick has opened for over 30 national acts, including The Wallflowers, Suzanne Vega, Wyclef Jean, Brett Dennen, Blues Traveler, Enter The Haggis, Bob Schneider, and Edwin McCain, and shared bills with Dr. Dogg and The Avett Brothers. As the founder of the nationally touring show “The 9 Songwriter Series” and co-founder of “The Circus Life Podcast” with guests such as Kevin Eubanks, Chris Thomas King, Ernie Halter, Yarn, and Snuffy Walden, Trawick has built a brand that extends far beyond his home base in DC.
