About this service

Soulful​,​ passionate and engaging​,​ Evyn Charles delivers superb vocals​,​ expert guitar playing​,​ and positive music with an extensive repertoire of cover songs and originals. Growing up in a cultural Gumbo pot outside Paris​,​ France​,​ the bilingual multi-instrumentalist and vocalist was immersed in the sounds of the world. He played violin in a classical orchestra​,​ bass in a Reggae band​,​ and has never stopped singing… Right out of high-school​,​ he played music at Club Med™ resorts​,​ starting to refine what would turn into his trademark Soulful Beach Groove style​,​ then obtaining an outstanding musical education at Boston’s Berklee College of Music. His prodigious repertoire covers practically every genre and era​,​ or as he likes to explain: “I play songs that people like.” A typical performance may travel from Sinatra to Surf guitar​,​ Kenny Chesney to Foo Fighters​,​ with a side trip in his native French and some Irish favorites! He also has a wonderful quieter side and can provide instrumental guitar music. Equally at home on a solo acoustic guitar​,​ with a duo​,​ trio or his band A La Plage​,​ Evyn performs at weddings​,​ parties and special events as well as venues ranging from neighborhood restaurants and country clubs to festivals. Following in the footsteps of Van Morrison​,​ Bob Marley and Eva Cassidy​,​ he combines infectious party songs with heart-tugging numbers.
