GODWIN’S NORTH AMERICAN HEADLINE TOUR CONTINUES THROUGH NOVEMBER
NASHVILLE, TENN. – On The Boss’ 75th birthday, Charles Wesley Godwin pays tribute to one of his foremost musical idols with a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “State Trooper,” as well as a full band version of “10-38,” which Godwin wrote from the perspective of the police officer in “State Trooper.”
A portion of the proceeds from the release of “State Trooper” and “10-38” will go to the First Responders Children’s Foundation, which provides financial support to children who have lost a parent in the line of duty as well as families enduring significant financial hardship due to tragic circumstances.
After releasing his third album Family Ties in the fall of 2023, Godwin and his band the Allegheny High have hit the road hard. In addition to their own headline shows, Godwin and the High spent the summer supporting Luke Combs on his Growin’ Up And Gettin’ Old stadium tour, and opened select shows for Turnpike Troubadours, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, and Jamey Johnson. Godwin played major festivals across the U.S. in 2024, making his debut at Bonnaroo, Stagecoach and Bourbon & Beyond. Godwin’s 2024 North American headline tour continues into November.
Godwin also made his Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert debuts in 2024. Watch him perform “Cue Country Roads” on Kimmel here, watch him perform “Family Ties” on Colbert here.

ABOUT CHARLES WESLEY GODWIN
West Virginia native Charles Wesley Godwin makes cinematic country-folk that’s as stunning and ruggedly raw as his homeland. It’s Appalachian Americana, rooted in Godwin’s sharp songwriting and backwoods baritone. Digging into the weeds of his life and returning to the foundation it was built upon, Godwin’s 19-track third studio album Family Ties is out now, his first-ever major label release following independent albums How the Mighty Fall and Seneca. A road warrior backed by his lauded players The Allegheny High, Godwin ended 2023 headlining nationwide, including a sold-out double header at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium. This year, Godwin headlines again, alongside support dates opening stadiums for Luke Combs on his Growin’ Up and Gettin’ Old Tour and major festival appearances at Stagecoach, Bonnaroo, Under The Big Sky, and more.
