Charlie Wilson Concert Schedule

The Gap Band alumnus and adult contemporary R&B superstar Charlie Wilson has been dazzling audiences and listeners with his sultry vocals since the takeoff of his solo career in the early 2000s. Charlie Wilson's tour dates feature an electrifying energy more akin to a tight-knit party than a sold-out concert, as seen in his 2017 In It To Win It Tour, his 2015 Forever Charlie Tour and his 2013 Love, Charlie Tour, among many others. Wilson is known for his smooth funk & soul singing style, which, combined with his talents as a songwriter, producer and keyboardist, has led to the creation of numerous R&B hits over his eight solo studio albums. On stage, Charlie puts on a show with an unmatched level of energy. He beckons crowds to take to their feet and feel the music as his band delivers with tightly composed rhythms and he serenades with his dulcet melodies. In addition to praise from fellow performers, Charlie Wilson's music has earned him 11 Grammy Award nominations, six NAACP Image Award nominations (along with one win for Outstanding Album), and numerous honors from BET, Billboard and Soul Train, along with acknowledgements from across the music industry and beyond.

Charlie Wilson Background

Charlie Wilson was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1953. The son of a Christian minister, he learned to play piano and sing in church, providing the musical background that led to the formation of The Gap Band with his brothers Ronnie and Robert. After the group announced their retirement in 2010, Charlie shifted his focus to concentrate on his solo career, becoming Billboard Magazine's No. 1 Adult R&B Artist and a breakout success. Wilson's first solo album, Bridging The Gap, came in 2000, earning him acclaim from the single "Without You." His follow-up release, Charlie, Last Name Wilson, went certified gold and produced the eponymous single (along with fellow R&B vocalist R. Kelly) by which he is most often known. In subsequent years, Charlie Wilson continued to release and chart on the Billboard Hot 200 and R&B/Hip-Hop charts and sold more than 1 million copies of his albums. Wilson has inspired generations of performers who also feature him on their own records. He was given the affectionate nickname "Uncle Charlie" by Snoop Dogg and collaborated with the rapper (and Justin Timberlake) on the 2013 track "Signs.

  • Charlie never let me down

    by retLP on 5/22/25The Theater at MGM National Harbor - National HarborRating: 5 out of 5

    I've been an avid concert goer when Charlie near me. I think the first time a saw Charlie in 2011. I was so excited from his performance. 15 years later still good. He doesn't dance like he use to but neither do LOL He still give an exciting show as a headliner. Customes still great. Dancers still great. My daughter took me to Charlie Wilson on Mother's Day 2012. She was even amazed. He performed at MGM this past Mother's Day and I was there. A young guy sitting next to me attended with his mother. I was laughing because he had the same action when my daughter took me. Charlie is Wilson a legionary for concert performers

  • He was physically able to put on a good show.

    He was physically able to put on a good show. I enjoy Charlie Wilson music, and it was the first time I have seen his show live. My wife said she saw his 5 years ago and it was changing Full outfits and had lots of energy. He could have sat in one place on a stool or the piano and put on a great show he is a legend. His singing was awesome.

  • Amazing Performance

    by Maggie Starr on 5/15/25The Theater at MGM National Harbor - National HarborRating: 5 out of 5

    Charlie Wilson concert Mother’s Day was amazing in fulfilling my expectations of a great performance. Being that this was a first time seeing him in concert was a wonderful ending of my Mother’s Day weekend. Blessings to him, his Team and Family always. 😀❤️

  • Uncle Charlie was phenomenal!

    Amazing show that did not disappoint! Stage presence, atmosphere, and band members were all amazing.

  • Late start

    by Que Psi Phi on 5/14/25The Theater at MGM National Harbor - National HarborRating: 4 out of 5

    The show overall was good but Uncle Charlie was 30 minutes late. Once he settled into his routine the show was good!

  • The Real Charlie Wilson

    by Charlie W on 5/14/25The Theater at MGM National Harbor - National HarborRating: 5 out of 5

    Despite his back injury, Charlie Wilson performance was awesome. This was my second time seeing him in the DC area and I will see him again. “ Outstanding”

  • It was a great experience. I had never seen him in concert

    by 1st timer on 5/14/25The Theater at MGM National Harbor - National HarborRating: 5 out of 5

    I loved the lights and how they "performed"with the dancers. I loved their costume changes. I hope Charlie will feel better with his back because we love him.

  • Charlie

    Charlie and his crew showed up and showed out. Easy access to the venue and nice accommodations.

  • Entertainment

    Charley Wilson aka Uncle Charley is the best entertainment show top down

  • Excellent Show

    by Lenny on 5/14/25The Theater at MGM National Harbor - National HarborRating: 5 out of 5

    The Charlie Wilson show was excellent he always put on a good show. I love his testimony. I think that he should have another artist on his show or comedian. I also think that his show should be 2 days opposed to 1. Being as though most of his fans are older maybe the show should start between 6:00-7:00.
