Charlie Shaw (Simon Shaw) has been singing and acting for much of his life. A keen musician and vocalist Charlie plays Jake Blues in a successful Blues Brother Tribute Act, “Soul Bro’s”.

 

The New Mods, Wildfire and Radio Silence are 3 bands Charlie has headed as lead vocalist with powerful impact,  performing on radio and at festivals. Taking part in tv and films, such as Swallows and Amazons, Emmerdale, Hollyoaks and The Moonstone, as well as theatrical productions including Jesus Christ Superstar and Fiddler on the Roof.

 

Educated at Fyling Hall School, Charlie has harnessed his interest in antiques to work as an auctioneer in London and appear on antique challenge shows. He also works as a Film & Tv extra and has appeared in many local theatre shows in Scarborough.

 

“I know I’m going to enjoy presenting on Radio Scarborough and look forward to leading the way locally and further afield in the “Jazz Scene” filling your ears with great music, interviews and cool vibes! It’s a great pleasure

 

THE LAZY RIVER JAZZ SHOW, covers local, national and international jazz, so Charlie can often be seen flitting between Scarborough Jazz at The Cask, Ronnie Scott’s and the 606 (for research purposes, he assures us!)
