Synopsis

Texan singer-songwriter Charlie Robison is tonight's session guest.
His latest album, Beautiful Day, was written during the breakdown of his marriage to Emily Erwin of The Dixie Chicks and reflects the anger, sadness, hope, resilience and liberation that came with the dissolution of a relationship. It ends with a cover of Bruce Springsteen's 'Racing in the Street'.

Charlie was born in Houston and raised in Bandera, Texas and before embarking on a solo career he was in the bands Chaparral, Millionaire Playboys, and Two Hoots and a Holler. He released his first album, Bandera in 1994. His brother Bruce is also a singer-songwriter and the two have frequently worked together as songwriters and performers.
