Charlie Feathers

American rockabilly singer and songwriter, associated with Sun and King Records, known for an idiosyncratic vocal style and a cult following.

Born August 5, 1932; died May 29, 1998. Recorded at Sun Records and King Records. Praised by later artists such as Lux Interior; cited in the review as a cult figure admired by Tav Falco and Alan Vega.

A lyrical, admiring DeBaser review by luludia presents Charlie Feathers as a burnt-out rocker and cult figure. The review highlights his Sun/King era, 1973 Chicago recordings and his blend of rockabilly, country and blues. Recommended listening includes his 1973 album and several anthologies.

For:Fans of rockabilly, vintage country, roots music, collectors and music historians.
