Charles Kelley Celebrates New Album With One Night Only Show At Exit/In
Charles Kelley.
Charles Kelley brought his new solo album, Songs for a New Moon, to Exit/In last night (Aug. 28).
Kelley opened with his lead single “Can’t Lose You,” before moving into a set that included the entire album and covers of Tears for Fears’ “Everybody Wants To Rule The World,” Peter Gabriel’s “Sledgehammer” and more. He invited Dann Huff on stage for “Never Let You Go” and Eric Paslay to join him on “The Driver” from Kelley’s first solo album. The show closed with an intimate acoustic rendition of his “Leaving Nashville.”
The 16-song project marks a season of renewed possibility and fresh perspective for Kelley, best known as the co-lead vocalist of the Grammy-winning trio Lady A. Kelley pulled inspiration for the record from his relationship with his wife Cassie for songs like “Can’t Lose You” and his experiences over the last three years of his sobriety.
