Charlie Wood Jazz
“Music is the universal language.. and anyone, no
matter what country they are from, ‘understands’
instrumental music. It’s a sensation, a feeling
from within. We are all interconnected as one
heart, one soul, and one man.” Charlie Wood

Charlie
truly
lived
a
life
of
music,
connection,
unity,
and
love.
There’s
not
a
song
that
he
wrote
or
played
that
his
heart
did
not
touch.
Charlie
did
not
seek
fame
or
fortune
and
he
always
said,
“Success
is
relative…
if
you
can
make
a
living
doing
what
you
love,
then
that
is
success—not
your
name
in
lights
and
all
that
glamour.”
G-d,
our
Creator,
gave
him
the
gift
of
music
and
ability
to
play
multiple
instruments,
but
his
main
love
is
and
always will be his guitar.
His
playing
and
songwriting
abilities
garnered
him
recognition
through
various
agencies
and
organizations,
such
as
SA
Current
Lead
Guitar
player
of
the
year
for
2
years
in
a
row,
Bulverde
Chamber
of
Commerce
for
his
community
work
through
teaching
music
and
helping
with
local
events,
for
his
work
as
a
Music
Director
for
Bulverde
Stage
Theater
in
the
production
of
“Johnny
Cash,”
for
the
largest
sell-out
in
the
history
of
the
theater.
Also,
Charlie
received
prestigious
recognition
by
his
music
peers
-
Texas
Music
Association
for
“deep
commitment
to
his
music
and
for
sharing
his
remarkable
talent
with
the
SA/TMA
showcase,”
nomination
considerations
by
the
Grammy’s
for
two
of
his
CDs
and
was
the
winner
of
two
Global
Music
Awards in 2015 & 2016.
Charlie’s
music
has
been
described
as
“Rare
and
pure
of
heart.”
He
wrote,
performed,
recorded,
keeping
true to his oft quoted motto:
“Life Is But A Groove.”
One
of
his
main
passions
was
giving
back
to
the
community
by
teaching
hundreds
of
students
to
play
guitar, bass, ukulele, banjo, mandolin, and even high school band members who played baritone or tuba.
He is the epitome of giving, practicing
“Love covers all transgressions.”
Currently,
there
are
projects
underway
for
keeping
Charlie’s
heartfelt
music
alive.
In
keeping
with
his
sharing
spirit
of
warmth,
joy,
peace
and
tranquility,
we
will
be
releasing
a
spiritual
compilation
he
completed
in
2016,
but
never
released.
It
is
quite
evident
to
us
that
Charlie
’s
music
comes
from
his
heart
and
we
know
for certain, when you hear his music, he will captivate yours.
ENJOY! (Nothing would please Charlie more!)
