In the Flamingo Lounge with Rockabilly Greg13 Des 2025

Charlie Coughlin

Charlie Coughlin, born in Buffalo's Irish heritage district, brings a unique blend of Irish and American tunes, folk songs, and new music sensibility to his solo act, forming his own Neo-Folk sound.

As the fiddler for Crikwater, The Brothers Blue, Steel City Rovers, and Bánóg, Charlie has been performing in the Buffalo area for more than ten years. He has played on stages from Buffalo to New York, Baltimore, Ireland, and beyond. He has also performed at many great festivals across the country, such as the Greyfox Bluegrass Festival, The Virginia Scottish Festival, and The Southern Maryland Celtic Festival, among many others.

Charlie is also a proud recipient of the Irish Echo's Arts and Culture Award in 2023.
In the fall of 2025, Charlie opened the Buffalo Academy of Irish Music. Its aim is to bring in-depth traditional Irish music lessons to youth and adults in the Buffalo and Western New York region. Its goal is to further enrich the already fantastic Irish traditional music scene in the area with more young players and masterclasses from highly skilled teachers from Ireland.

Charlie joined Rockabilly Greg In the Flamingo Lounge on November 15, 2025 to talk about the Buffalo Academy of Irish Music, his music and play some traditional and non-traditional fiddle tunes.
