Wednesday (January 24) evening, CMT shared a surprise short episode of CMT Campfire Sessions featuring Charles Wesley Godwin. Neither Godwin nor the network advertised the recorded acoustic concert ahead of time. As a result, it hit the internet with little fanfare. However, fans and new listeners alike were happy to see the West Virginia native on the Campfire Sessions set. Watch the full four-song acoustic concert below.

A look at the lineup for the third season of CMT Campfire Sessions will show some big-name country artists. However, Godwin isn’t on the list. Furthermore, word of his performance on the show in any capacity is absent from the network’s website. So, it seems that this was an online-only treat for fans.

Charles Wesley Godwin on Campfire Sessions
Godwin didn’t hit the CMT stage alone. He brought along his guitarist Al Torrence and had Read “Two-Show” Connolly on dobro for the set. The trio performed acoustic renditions of some of the highlights of CWG’s 2023 album Family Ties. The setlist included “All Again,” “Miner Imperfections,” “That Time Again,” and “Willing and Able”

The West Virginia native didn’t stop between songs to chat with the TV audience or talk about the origins of the songs. Instead, he introduced himself and his bandmates at the beginning of the performance and let the songs speak for themselves.
