That's Wassup is the debut release from Charles Langford.

This imaginative creator displays his knowledge of musical history on his latest release, That's Wassup. Mr. Langford seems to move effortlessly from straight ahead swing to funk to crooning, romantic ballads...there is literally something for every taste on this album. “Chucky's Funk" lays down some classic Stanley Clarke jazz bass funk and the horn work is reminiscent of the great George Coleman. “Someone To Love" fills the senses with a romantic David Sanborn melody that you are left humming for hours.

Mr. Langford has studied under Archie Shepp, Yusef Lateef, Donald Byrd and Barry Harris, among others. He has done sessions or toured with artists as diverse as The Toni Lynn Washington Blues Band to The Temptations and Mighty Sam McClain.

Charles Langford is an artist with a lot to say and he gets his point across with many different voices on his debut, That's Wassup. With such dynamic musicianship, we will certainly be hearing his name for years to come.
