 COSTA MESA, Calif. — On Thursday, October 1, Charlie Stockwell and the Shipwrecks played their first show together as a full band, headlining the Tiki Bar in Costa Mesa. The night doubled as the live release party for Golden State of Mind, Stockwell's album released September 11.

Taking the stage for his first concert with a band, Stockwell played with the confidence of a veteran. Backed by Rowan Smy on lead guitar, Steve Lunn on drums and Jody Shields on bass, the band locked in from the opening notes of "Your Ocean Blue" and never let go, moving through a fifteen song set that drew heavily on the new album while nodding to the artists who shaped his sound.

Turnout was light, as Thursday nights go: about sixty five people, mostly friends from the Newport and Costa Mesa area.

Stockwell introduced the band to the crowd by name, tagging drummer Steve Lunn as "Steve Donald Duck Lunn," after Donald "Duck" Dunn of the Blues Brothers Band.

The covers were a statement in themselves: Van Morrison's "Into the Mystic," Crosby, Stills & Nash's "Southern Cross," the Faces' "Oh La La," the Jerry Garcia Band's "Waiting for a Miracle" (Bruce Cockburn), Colin Hay's "Waiting for My Real Life to Begin," and "Paradise Beach" by Magic Von Shy. The highlight of the night came during "Southern Cross," when Stockwell & the Wrecks got the crowd dancing. Stockwell also premiered a brand new song, "Wayward and Wandering," in its live debut.

"I played with a lot of confidence. The band played well," Stockwell said of the night. The room responded in kind. After the set, audience members told him how proud they were, and how confident and polished the whole performance sounded.

Thanks are due to the Tiki Bar in Costa Mesa and its staff for the warm welcome. And the feeling is mutual: the venue has asked the band back in January for another performance.

The full show was filmed on three cameras, and the concert video is in the works. Until then, Golden State of Mind is streaming everywhere: charliestockwellmusic.com
