Red Dirt Concert Series - Charlie McNeal with Austin B. Sweeney

Hosted by the City of Sedona Department of Parks and Recreation

Charlie McNeal
Charlie McNeal is an extraordinary traditional country talent. With a deep and impressive collection of original songs, he is establishing himself as the next true country star.

Charlie had this to say about his music: “I listen to everything. A little bit of Bowie, Metallica, and Gordon Lightfoot. But my roots are country. So, guys like Merle, Waylon, and newer guys like Cody Jinks, Sturgill Simpson, and Eric Church are always part of my sound. I get inspired by anyone who is real and songs that say something.”

Austin B. Sweeney
Austin B. Sweeney is a Pacific-Northwest-born artist, now with roots down in Phoenix, Arizona. His sound combines the organic acoustic sounds of Mumford & Sons, Sturgill Simpson, and Van Morrison, with the electric west coast sounds that harken back to the Eagles, Pearl Jam, and Jackson Browne. His songwriting is self-referential and extremely personal, yet universal. It touches on themes of growth, addiction, freedom, anxiety, spirituality and the pure joy of an open highway.
