"I must tell you that your piece, as well as the tone and nuance in your playing, is exceptional. There are many solo piano artists on the world stage today, yet not all can express emotion as you do in your music."

Dan Chadburn about 'Hideaway'

 

Solo Piano Project

Charley's solo piano debut album 'Hideaway', is a hybrid of romantic, impressionistic classical music and jazz.

​

"I was drawn in from the start and am glad to have discovered a new, captivating artist in the genre." - Greg Jones

She also created some mellow peaceful piano arrangements of Kanye West's latest album Jesus is King with a hint of classical. 

​

The covers were in the top 200 iTunes classical charts of the US, Japan and UK for 6 days.
Charley's solo piano project has been streamed over 350.000 times.
