“The concert was one of our most successful revenue producers, and we are excited that our 2023-24 season will open with TWO nights in concert with Charles as our featured vocalist. We look forward to another sold out concert and two great nights of entertainment for our audiences.”

Mike Lewis

Executive Director, Lynchburg Symphony Orchestra

“Charles brings a dynamic presence to the stage,  interacts effortlessly with the audience, and infuses his performances with a theatrical flair that engages the public. His command of musical styles is impressive, and he effortlessly transitions from one genre to the next. The orchestral charts that he has for his performances  sound fabulous, are stylish, and were easy to work with for our library.”

David Glover

“Charles’ voice is so powerful and rich and we loved his choice of songs. I actually put him on my Sonos system at home after the concert.”

A NEW CHAPTER FOR CHARLES BILLINGSLEY

Building on nearly thirty years as a singer and entertainer, performing thousands of shows, Charles Billingsley is ready to take a new turn in his storied career. His latest solo offering, The Shadow of Your Smile, is a bighearted, show-stopping collection drawing from the hits of Broadway, big band, smooth jazz and the Great American Songbook. These beloved standards and classics, newly arranged and powered by Charles’s largerthan- life voice, come together in a make-you-smile album of classic favorites.

Produced by Tim Davis (Barbra Streisand, Glee) and Wayne Haun (Celine Dion, Boyz II Men), iconic recordings like “It Had to Be You,” “Danny Boy,” “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” “America, the Beautiful (feat. Voctave)” and “Bring Him Home” come alive in a brand-new way when paired with Charles’s smooth, beautifully engaging vocals.
