My name is Charlie Hoberg. I'm a lifelong Sioux City resident, but have seen my fair share of the wide world and beyond. I pay the bills by teaching high school at North High in Sioux City, but my real love is music: listening to it, collecting it, and especially playing it. I've been performing professionally (a fancy word that means making money doing it) since the fifth grade (some 30 years ago). I've been a drummer since I was old enough to bang on pots, pans, and coffee containers, and continue to play the skins. I've had my trusty, black Ludwig Quadra-Plus set since high school. They've seen a lot of road miles and still serve me well, just like an old friend. I've been singing and drumming since my high school band. The gents of Wavelength have given me my first opportunity to be a front man/lead singer, and I couldn't be more grateful. In fact, they now legally own my first born son, Skynyrd. I may not have as big tatas as Wavelength's former lead singers, but my areolae are pretty cool, nonetheless. Let me try to remember the names of the bands in which I've been . . . . The first band (autoharp, kazoo, coffee cans) was The Three Saints. Revolution was our band in junior high and high school (late 70s), where I learned that chicks dig musicians. In college (early 80s), I played in The Free Beer Band and really matured as a musician. Next came The Signs, followed by a long stint (mid-late 80s) with The Shadows. During the nineties, I've played with the same lineup of musicians, but we've changed our names a few times because they kept running us out of town. These bands were Sam Phillips and the King Live!, Sid and the Soundmen, and Vinyl Kings. Now I'm with Wavelength and absolutely love the material and the friends I've made in Jerry, Ed, and Ken. And guess what? The chicks still dig musicians!
