European Tour 2007

Charlie Winston

During the summer of 2007 Peter Gabriel crossed Europe with his 'Warm Up Tour'. He invited an unknown performer called Charlie Winston to travel along as his support on those dates.

Since then Charlie has gone from strength to strength. In January 2009 he released his debut album 'Hobo' in France. It has sold 350,000 copies in a little over 6 months and Charlie is now a French household name. The release of 'Hobo' is now highly anticpated across the rest of the world in autumn 2009.

This low-key release documents some of Charlie's performances on that tour, with his band at the time 'The Oxymorons'.

It features 10 tracks from 7 different nights and is an interesting insight into an artist who has taken France by storm and who has a very promising future.
