Charlie Cope's Backing Band The Other Guys

The Other Guys are not like most other backing bands. The Other Guys are asked to do a lot more and put in a lot more work than most backing musicians. They also each put their own parts into the songs and help Charlie along the way. From helping Charlie compose the horn section, to restructuring songs, and to writing killer guitar riffs, The Other Guys shape a lot of the music from the stage to the studio.

Riley Wine

Drummer

Riley Wine has been in The Other Guys longer than anyone else playing alongside Charlie. Riley plays the drums, tambourine, shakers, and many more percussion instruments. The New Jersey native is quickly making his way through the Texas music scene alongside Charlie after studying music together at The University Of North Texas.

Joseph Reding

Violinist/Mandolinist

Joseph's 0 to 60 violin transitions are one of the greatest parts of Charlie Cope's music. This Houston native uses his mixture of jazz, classical, americana and blues influences to liven every performance. His fast paced shredding and slow sweet melodies are a very crucial part of this brand of gritty americana music.

The Other Other Guys

Charlie works with a lot of great artists. These extended members of the Other Guys, called The Other Other Guys, are people that have played with Charlie onstage, in the studio, and work behind the scenes shooting videos, or pictures, or working behind the computer making up the team that makes everything Charlie do possible.
