Award winning Jazz guitarist and bandleader in Madison since 2008. I also perform as a soloist (singing telegrams), duo with upright bass, trio with drums or horn, and as a quartet! Larger groups can be assembled upon request. My bio:
"Charlie Painter is a self-studied, self- producing, Madison-based guitarist, band leader and teacher since 2008.
With 17 years of weekly/monthly residencies under his belt, Painter's multi conceptual approach is informed by years of performance, transcribing records by ear, and a recent mentorship under NYC Jazz guitarist Jordan Klemons since 2020."

August 13, 2026Charlie will work with you to make sure that the music for your event is just what you want. At my request, he expanded the trio to include keyboards and an amazing saxophone player, Austin Cebulski. Charlie responded lightning fast when I reached out to him with questions and was very kind even when I referred to him as Charlie Parker instead of Charlie Painter at the event. You will enjoy working with him and the music will be amazing.
