FT Live: Charles Esten

Over the last few years, singer/songwriter and actor Charles Esten – best known  for his roles as Ward Cameron on the NETFLIX global hit show Outer Banks, and  Deacon Claybourne in ABC/CMT’s Nashville, has performed hundreds of live  concerts, including multiple headline tours in the US, Germany, Amsterdam, and  UK, including the Royal Albert Hall. In early 2020, his main stage performance as  part of the popular Country2Country festival in Europe was cut short by the  pandemic. After that, for over a year during lockdown, he entertained fans  virtually with his weekly FacebookLive Quarantine Livestream that to-date has  drawn almost 1.5 million total views. Recently, he has been able to resume live  performances, most notably on the Grand Ole Opry, where he has made 140  appearances to-date, and he is excited to reconnect with more live audiences as  he takes to the road for his own shows this summer.  

In his adopted hometown of Nashville, Esten serves as the National Honorary  Spokesperson for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s annual “Light The Night”  Walk, and as a board member and volunteer for Musicians On Call. When not  filming or touring, he continues to write and record his own music with over 9.5  million streams to date, and a Guinness World Record for releasing 54 original  songs (available on iTunes, and on Spotify) once a week, for 54 consecutive  weeks. Additionally, he is currently hosting a four-part series on Absolute Radio  Country, sharing some of his favorite country music and the stories behind the  songs.
