Charles Wesley Godwin on 'Better That Way'

Charles Wesley Godwin is no stranger to success, selling out iconic venues across the country, but now he’s set his sights on Country radio with some help from his friend, Luke Combs. Godwin recently joined Katie Neal inside our Nashville studios to talk about his path through music, his upcoming album, and his new song, “Better That Way,” featuring Luke Combs. “This song's about being happy where your feet are right in that moment,” Charles explains. “So being happy for the things and the place in life that you're at, and I think that's a really important thing for people to be reminded of constantly, even multiple times throughout the day.” “It's human of us to always be thinking about the next thing or the next step,” he adds. “We get real caught up in that stuff, and then when it's over, when a certain period of time's over, sometimes the end comes before, you don't realize it in the moment, then later years, you look back you're like, ‘oh, that was a really special time. I wish I could step back into that time in my life one more time and enjoy it.'” Godwin shares that his albums often have a theme, and the upcoming LP, 'Christian Name,' is no different. “This one, the theme is faith,” he reveals. “It's about my faith. It's about my pursuit and faith and pointing to God as my healer.” To hear more from Charles Wesley Godwin about his path to success, his tour experience with Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan, and so much more, check out the full conversation above.
