Rising Country Artist Jimmy Charles Launches New Single & New Charity, #IAMNOTALONE
Rising Country artist Jimmy Charles has launched his 501(3)(c) charity, #IAMNOTALONE,
in tandem with his new single, “I Am Not Alone.” The organization
focuses on ensuring that no one battling cancer feels alone in their
journey and asks participants to sign a “contract” promising never to give up. Jimmy co-wrote the passionate song with C.J. Garton and Rich Fehle, and the track was produced by Grammy
Award-winner Lawrence “Boo” Mitchell (Rod Stewart, Bruno Mars, Al
Green, John Mayer). “I Am Not Alone” offers a powerful message of hope
and strength – and Jimmy will donate 100% of the single’s sales to his
new nonprofit. The song is from his upcoming EP and is available to
radio via Play MPE and AirPlay Direct. Fans can find the track on Amazon, iTunes and HERE.
In the dark of the night with the demons there
I got angels that still care
right beside me til this battle’s won
I am not alone
I will stay strong
I won’t have to do this all on my own
love carry this torch this cross I bare
this fighting spirit’s still right here
I ain’t ready to go home (Charles, Garton, Fehle)
Music is Jimmy’s focus, but compassion and activism round out his world.A national ambassador and spokesman for ZERO Cancer
since 2014, Jimmy is inspired by the cancer survivors he’s met at the
many Run/Walk events where he’s performed, and by loved ones lost to the
disease. “I’ve learned so much from
them,” he says. “Their stories break my heart, but our journey together
makes me whole.” That journey motivated the young singer/songwriter, who
was named Outstanding Young Tennessean (2017), to form his own
charity. “I love working with ZERO,” Jimmy notes. “It’s an amazing
organization. I love doing the shows and getting out and talking to
folks.”
“#IAMNOTALONE and ZERO have different goals,” Jimmy says. “But they really complement each other.”
