ABOUT CHARLES ESTEN
Charles Esten is an American actor,
singer and comedian, best known for playing the role of country singer Deacon
Claybourne in the hit TV show: "Nashville".
Born
in Pittsburgh, PA, Charles “Chip” Esten
was raised in Alexandria, VA and attended T.C. Williams High School (made
famous in the film “Remember the Titans.”) He then attended The College of
William and Mary in Williamsburg, where he graduated with a degree in economics
and met his wife, Patty. While in Williamsburg, he was lead singer/songwriter
in a popular local band.
Esten
made his theatrical debut in London
when he portrayed Buddy Holly,
singing, acting and playing guitar in the hit West End musical “Buddy.” In that
role he was honored to perform for Her
Majesty Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, and eventually President and
Mrs. George H.W. Bush at The White House. He was also very honored to perform
with Jerry Allison and Joe B. Mauldin, Buddy’s original hitmaking bandmates,
the Crickets.
It
was during his run as Buddy that Esten first appeared on the original British
version of “Whose Line Is It Anyway?,” with Ryan Stiles and Greg Proops. When
“Whose Line” came to ABC, he became a recurring cast member and frequent song
improvisor. Since then he has appeared on Drew Carey’s Improvaganza and toured
frequently, performing live improv shows with Stiles, Proops and Jeff B. Davis.
While
on "Nashville”, Esten has been honored to perform at the Grand Ole Opry and the historic Ryman auditorium. He was also thrilled
to sing and officially "flip the switch" at the 2013 Graceland
Christmas Lighting ceremony. Many of the songs he has performed as Deacon (Undermine, Sideshow, Playin'
Tricks, etc..) are available on the five very successful "Nashville"
soundtracks that have been released to date.
The
country music filled show was the perfect platform for Esten to flex his
talents. Focusing on this has led Esten to perform at the likes of the Country Music Festival, Country to Country Festival and in
world famous venues like the Royal
Albert Hall.
The
singer-songwriter currently releases one single a week as part of his
#EverySingleFriday project. The project celebrated one year recently and
continues to feature tracks from Nashville as well as Esten originals, all of
which can no doubt be heard at his UK shows this autumn.
The Leukemia &
Lymphoma Society
presented Charles Esten and family with the President’s Award for his
outstanding fundraising and incredible support at their National Light The
Night conference. Many at the event, including a number of the honorees, felt a
personal connection to the cause. Esten’s youngest daughter is a cancer
survivor, as is Alabama’s Randy Owen.

| The Adelaides with Charles Esten in Nashville |
Esten's
set is packed with his own work, some of the best loved hits from the show,
beautiful sections where he is joined by fantastic UK country band The Adelaides plus covers reworked into
his own style.
In January 2019 they
toured together playing Birmingham (Town Hall), London’s O2 Shepherds Bush
Empire, Bristol (St George's), Manchester (RNCM Concert Hall), Glasgow (Oran
Mor) and Gateshead (Sage 2) to packed halls!
Closing the night with The Adelaides joining
him for a magical rendition of Nashveille's anthemic A Life That's Good,
rightly described as a benediction by Esten, no doubt left both the audience
and those on stage feeling like their spirits had been lifted.
