The Charles W. Smith Music merch shop is officially open!

I’ve been working on getting some Charles W. Smith Music merchandise together for a while, and I’m pretty excited to finally have a place where folks can pick up a shirt, mug or a few other goodies and show a little support for the music.

You can check it all out here:

Charles W. Smith Music Merch Shop⁠

I’ve actually ordered several of the products myself before putting the shop out there, because I wasn’t about to sell something to y’all that I wouldn’t wear myself.

And I have to say, I’ve been really impressed with the quality.

The shirts feel good, the printing looks great, and the designs came out exactly the way I hoped they would. I’ve even got my new Charles W. Smith Music T-shirt ready to become part of the uniform for my live shows.

It’s comfortable, it looks good, and it has my name on it.

What more could a country boy ask for?

Well… maybe a bigger guitar.

But that’s another problem.

It’s More Than Just a Shirt

I’ve tried to make the merchandise look like it belongs to the music and to the whole Charles W. Smith Music brand.

You’ll find shirts and other items featuring my custom artwork and logos, along with some things that I think folks will enjoy having around the house or taking along to a show.

And yes, I’ve tried to keep the prices as reasonable as I possibly can.

I’m not trying to get rich selling T-shirts.

I ain’t trying to buy a yacht with merchandise sales. 😂

The folks who handle the printing and fulfillment do charge a little extra to put my custom branding on the products, so there’s only so much I can do on the pricing.

I’m basically trying to keep things as close to the bare minimum as I can while still offering good quality products.

If you decide to pick something up, you’re not just buying a piece of merchandise. You’re helping support an independent country musician who is trying to build something one song, one guitar and one live show at a time.

And I sure do appreciate that.

You’ll See Me Wearing It

One of the best parts about finally having my own merch is that you’ll be seeing me wear it during my live shows.

I’ve already got my new T-shirt, and I plan on wearing it during Acoustic Country with Charles, along with the other live shows I do.

So if you see me on TikTok wearing a Charles W. Smith Music shirt, don’t worry.

I’m not getting paid to wear it.

I’m the dummy who paid to make it. 😂

But seriously, I’m proud of how it turned out.

I’ve spent a lot of time working on the music, the logos, the website and all the other pieces that go along with building Charles W. Smith Music. Having some merchandise that ties all of that together makes it feel like this little music adventure is really starting to become something.

And that’s pretty exciting.

So if you’ve been looking for a way to support the music, head over and take a look around the shop.

You might find a T-shirt you like.

You might find something for your coffee cup.

You might even find something you didn’t know you needed until you saw it.

That’s how these things work.

Go take a look, and if you decide to wear a little Charles W. Smith Music around town, send me a picture. I’d love to see it.

Thanks to everybody who has supported me by watching the livestreams, listening to the songs, sharing my videos, requesting songs and hanging out with me online.

Every bit of it helps.

I’m just a country boy with a guitar trying to make some music and have a little fun along the way.

Now I’ve got a T-shirt to prove it.

And I’m pretty sure that’s how this whole thing gets serious. 😂
