Since her teenage years, Charly has established a career as a professional singer-songwriter with unique passion and voice.
While she may be familiar to some from her success as a semi-finalist on American Idol, she has maintained close ties to her Native American roots, culture, and music.
Currently, Charly is writing her first solo album. Recently, she was inducted to the Recording Academy Class of 2021. Her newest band configuration, “CHARLY”, was selected to participate in “American Music Abroad”, curated by the US Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and the Association of American Voices.
