Multi-talented entertainer Charles Esten brought his acclaimed independent debut album, "Love Ain’t Pretty", to NBC’s The Kelly Clarkson Show yesterday (1/29) for the rocking television premiere performance of “When Love Ain’t Love.” Written by Esten and Jeffrey East, listen to the cautionary tale of a romantic fallout produced by Marshall Altman here.
After his headline-making appearance last spring in Los Angeles, Esten made a coast-to-coast reunion with host Kelly Clarkson for a sit-down chat about the long-awaited full-length project alongside fellow guests Kevin James and Renata Notni in New York City. He also connected onscreen with Clarkson’s “Rad Human,” 15-year-old cancer survivor and inspiring singer Elana Koenig. With personal connections to childhood cancer after his daughter Addie survived leukemia when she was 2 ½ years old, Esten was moved to invite Koenig to perform at his 11th Annual Light the Late Night benefit concert in the fall. Serving as the National Honorary Spokesperson for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Esten’s “Team Addie” has surpassed over $2.2 MILLION in cumulative funds raised over the last 10 years. Watch the sweet surprise on NBC’s The Kelly Clarkson Show here.
Featured by Parade, Cowboys & Indians, CMT, and more, Esten’s "Love Ain’t Pretty" is being lauded by critics everywhere:
“the album is the purest representation of his artistry possible.” – GRAMMY.com
“being his true self has brought some of Esten’s biggest success, and that same spirit now
“Written with the wisdom and breadth that comes with time, Esten captures the dimensions of love, loss, growth, and hope.” – Forbes
Esten celebrated "Love Ain’t Pretty" with a SOLD-OUT first-time headlining concert at Nashville’s Exit/In for his album release show (1/26). Playing songs from the 14-track compilation (co-writing all with acoustic guitar credits), he further surprised the jam-packed house with a pop-up from former Nashville co-star Sam Palladio. With a follow-up appearance Saturday (1/27) during his 169th performance at Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry, he then took the Whiskey Jam stage for the 13th Anniversary show last night (1/29) at Nashville’s Dierks Bentley's Whiskey Row.
