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.

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.
