DHP Presents:
Pearl Charles @ The Louisiana Bristol

Pearl Charles live at The Louisiana, Bristol. Thursday, 30th April 2026.

With support from Gia Ford

Pearl Charles lives in the moment, seeking excitement whether it leads her down a dark, dusty road or into the arms of a trouble-making lover. Her songs describe late night revelry, love affairs, running away and running towards, serenading the sunrise through whirlwind stories of her native Los Angeles, the city, the canyon, the desert, and the road. On a quest to discover the truest version of herself, Charles embraces the feeling of not being settled, a person who always restlessly wants more from life and is willing to chase it, wherever it may lead her.

At 18, Charles formed The Driftwood Singers with Christian Lee Hutson, singing and playing guitar and autoharp. At 22, she joined garage rock band The Blank Tapes as drummer. After two fun-filled years immersed in the rock and roll lifestyle, she began developing the songs that formed 2015’s eponymous debut EP, followed by the acclaimed albums 'Magic Mirror’ in 2021 and 'Desert Queen' in 2025. Her music career has been a chronological progression from old time music to 60s garage and psychedelia, and now to a 70s tinged disco country hybrid and 80s inspired yacht rock. Drawn to catchy, poppy hooks and choruses, Charles draws on what she loves about each era while bringing a fresh approach with her unique style as a musician, singer, and songwriter.

Show starts at 7:30pm.
