Slippery Hill Bluegrass has begun recording their first full length studio project in the fabulous Rubber Room Studios! Entitled "Birds vs. Thunder", (an instrumental by Charles), and featuring Robbie Link on the upright bass, John Boulding on the banjo, and many other super guests, look for this to drop in the Fall 2023!
Slippery Hill's first EP recording has been accepted by the Chapel Hill Public Library's "Tracks Music Library", and is available for streaming and downloads.
Slippery Hill is booking 2023 Summer and Fall private parties and concerts now!
Review from a Slippery Hill wedding event:
"Charles, I cannot tell you how many compliments I received on [Slippery Hill]. You really set the tone from the moment the guests arrived to ushering them into the reception. Having such a fun bluegrass band to kick off the day was exactly what we needed."

"Upon being presented with the opportunity to have Charles in our fourth grade classrooms, I jumped at it. Telling the story of North Carolina from its early days via bluegrass music was joyful for my students. To see them dancing around and clapping along from their rooms to music many had never heard before, made me incredibly happy.”
--Shane Chinni, 4th Grade Teacher, Glenwood Elementary School, Chapel Hill, NC
