CHARLIE PEACOCK, GRAMMY Award winning, multi-genre record producer, is at No. 1 on the ITUNES Jazz Chart with LEMONADE, his collection of twelve solo piano improvisations. CHARLIE PEACOCK'S production of THE CIVIL WARS' Barton Hollow garnered two GRAMMY Awards in 2011 and was Gold certified. The eponymously titled THE CIVIL WARS debuted at No. 1 on the BILLBOARD Pop Chart, has sold over 300,000 copies and is GRAMMY-nominated. PEACOCK'S production of HOLLY WILLIAMS and THE LONE BELLOW were also singled out in 2013 as commercially and critically significant on many Best of 2013 lists.
Though now working in multiple genres, CHARLIE PEACOCK has a storied history with the Christian music community. PEACOCK is a songwriter ("Every Heartbeat") on the biggest selling recording in gospel music history, AMY GRANT'S Heart In Motion. PEACOCK discovered and developed the multiple GRAMMY and DOVE-winning band, SWITCHFOOT, producing several of their recordings. A three-time nominee for GMA Songwriter and Song of the Year, PEACOCK is best known for the songs "Hands and Feet" (AUDIO ADRENALINE), "Down In The Lowlands" (RUSS TAFF), Say The Name (MARGARET BECKER) and "In The Light" (DCTALK).
LEMONADE is PEACOCK'S third recording in the jazz genre. His first, LOVE PRESS EX-CURIO (2005) was followed by ARC OF THE CIRCLE (2008), a duet recording with saxophonist JEFF COFFIN. Each recording reached Top 5 on the CMJ Jazz Chart and both provide plenty of clues to PEACOCK'S unique piano approach, now fully revealed on LEMONADE.
