AUSTIN, Texas (Press Release)— Rising stars of the growing “retro-soul” movement, Charlie Faye & the Fayettes are often described as a “modern-day ’60s girl group” reminiscent of the Ronettes or Supremes. Their debut album rose to #20 on the Americana radio chart and garnered high praise from the press. The trio’s original songs, Motown-worthy dance moves, and tight backing band make their live shows an exciting and unforgettable experience. It’s the songs — classic sounding, with catchy melodies and intelligent lyrics — that set Charlie Faye & the Fayettes apart from the rest. “Musically, the group hearkens to Motown, Spector or the Brill Building,” says The Huffington Post. “Charlie is emerging as a budding Carole King, and the songs are good enough to rate comparison to Goffin & King or Mann & Weil.” Due to the strength of these songs, the band recently signed a licensing deal with Bank Robber Music. A series of great sync placements have followed since, including two on the CW’s Riverdale last month. The group’s music will be featured in the new Netflix series Girlboss, premiering April 21.
“I’m really excited to have Bank Robber on our team,” says Charlie, “Having our music in shows that reach millions of people could really help make things happen for us.” What’s next for this modern-day girl group? Along with the syncs, they’ve got a string of dates this spring and summer in Texas, New York, and California. Things are surely happening for the trio, in a way that’s rare for an independent act who still book and manage themselves.
