Charlie was born on 25th December 1994 at the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford. He then grew up and went to Magdalen College School, also in Oxford, where he sang as a chorister with OOTB alumnus, Laurie Cottam. Charlie now studies at Queen's College, Oxford. Oxford.

'Chicks' has an unhealthy obsession with Christmas, singing Christmas songs every day of the year. Experts think this is down to the fact that he received double presents on his birthday/Christmas day as a child - much to the chagrin of his siblings.

Statistically it would be fair to say that Charlie is a dispensable member of the group. He sings baritone along with 9 other members of OOTB and is rarely put on falsetto lines. However, statistics can be misleading, as Charlie's infectious smile and silky solo voice would be missed in any set.

Unbeknownst to many, Chicks spends the little time he isn't either singing or studying as a car mechanic. His reasoning for this is he likes to understand how things work but amongst friends it is clear he is just imitating his hero, Alfie Boe.

Charlie is oddly proud of the fact that he was born on a Wednesday.
