Charlie Mural At Birkenhead North Station Repainted


Charlie with Paul Curtis

As many of you will know, there is a mural of Charlie Landsborough on a wall of Birkenhead North station which is near to where Charlie grew up.

The mural was originally completed in 2022 but was sufferening from peeling paint. Charlie is pictured here with the renowned Liverpool artist Paul Curtis who is responsible for the artwork.

This time the wall was treated before Paul restored the image to its former glory.

You can see more of Paul Curtis's work all throughout Merseyside and further afield or by visiting his website www.paulcurtisartwork.com

Hi! I'm new to this group. I recently joined because I'm a fan of Charlie Landsborough. I've seen him live on several occasions. Charlie is a spirit filled brother in Christ and I love the fact that he doesn't keep his light under a bushel, he confesses Jesus as his friend, Lord and Saviour. A few years ago I had a video studio and Charlie came and shared his life story and testimony which is available to watch on my TASKJESUS YOUTUBE CHANNEL. Here's the link to watch it

We are pleased to advise ALL our Fans that we have introduced onto our website a new download section totally for these Individual Songs - Sheet Music Booklets

Charlie Joins the British Country Music Hall of Fame!


Charlie and Lee with AwardI have known Charlie from the beginning of his career and was one of the first to interview him. I had great pleasure in giving him the award on stage at Salisbury City Hall and inducting him into The British Country Music Hall Of Fame. He is alongside some of the many British Country Music greats who like Charlie have given so much talent to audiences all over the world, showing that Britain can produce top class singers, songwriters, and musicians.
