Über diesen Titel

 What if creative success isn’t just about fame or money? What myths keep us from fully embracing our creative potential? Off The Charts explores these questions through conversations with artists, musicians, writers, and other creative voices — as well as reflections from host Lionel Cartwright, a lifelong recording artist, songwriter, composer, and music director. By looking beyond metrics of popularity and sales, the show uncovers fresh perspectives on what a creative life can look like. Each episode is designed to encourage you to trust and engage your own creativity — wherever and however it’s expressed.Copyright 2025 Lionel Cartwright Kunst Musik Persönliche Entwicklung Persönlicher Erfolg

  • Carl Perkins: A Lesson in Lightness

    Carl Perkins: A Lesson in Lightness
    Dec 19 2025
    The secret lesson Carl Perkins taught me about surviving the music business. Most people would be bitter if Elvis became "The King" using their song. Carl chose something else: lightness.In the early 90s, while I was navigating the "Hat Act" craze of Garth Brooks and Alan Jackson, I had a chance airport hang with Carl. It was a masterclass in perspective.
    In this episode:
    1. The "Blue Suede Shoes" tragedy and the car crash that changed history.
    2. Carl's ability to laugh at career dips and industry trends.

  • What meeting Stevie Wonder revealed to me

    What meeting Stevie Wonder revealed to me
    Dec 11 2025

    They say never meet your heroes — and that may be true more often than not. But a surprise encounter I had with Stevie Wonder left a mark I’ve never forgotten. It didn’t happen in a glamorous setting, and I was just a 21-year-old musician with no claim to fame. Yet this musical icon imparted something that remains a check and a reminder to this day.
