Barefoot Charlie set themselves apart by their unconventional eclectic mix of rock songs from different eras. They call their music “Adventure Rock” as spectators will be taken
into a musical adventure like no other.

From the instrumental Jeff Beck & Joe Satriani tunes to the synth heavy Styx & The Who… From the progressive Boston, Rush & Kansas to the popular Van Halen, Journey & Prince… From the heavy hitting Black Sabbath to the reggae beats of Bob Marley & No Doubt… From the shrill Heart & Evanescence to the soulful Doobie Brothers… And everything in between!

In 2018, they started out as a duo of keyboardist and drummer playing alternative pop rock. During practices and gigs, they play “barefoot” and love to stomp their feet like “Charlie
Chaplin… hence, the name! After being invited for the first time to play in a festival, they decided to complete the band with guitar and bass. For the first 2 years, Barefoot Charlie
was a female fronted band until they’ve found a great male vocalist to complete them.

Today, Barefoot Charlie is comprised of Andy Stedt on lead vocals, Carol Legaspi on keyboards, Jason Martin on drums, Mike Ferri on lead guitars, and Josh Andrews on bass.
The 5 of them hail from bands of different genres, but they all play together in Barefoot Charlie to express their love for rock music, this time with shoes on!

Barefoot Charlie have graced the stages of numerous local live entertainment venues in Illinois and Indiana. In just a matter of a few years as a full band, they quickly garnered recognition everywhere they go as one of the best rock cover bands locally.
