After over 20 years pounding the skins for Skinny Moo, founding member Charley is retiring at the end of 2019. What a trip it’s been!

Skinny Moo started off as a blues band in the ’90s, and in the early 2000s transitioned into the funky rock dance band it is today. There has only been one man behind the drum kit for that entire time (aside from a few temporary fill-ins over the years), and that is Charley.

While Skinny Moo will continue on without him (more on that in the near future), we will miss him and his powerhouse drumming. We hope everyone from the extended Skinny Moo family will be able to join us for his last few gigs with us to let him know how much he will be missed.

Join us at Sully’s on Saturday December 14th for festive holiday merriment and lots of fun, funky rock music.

As we have mentioned, Skinny Moo’s founding member and drummer Charley has announced his retirement from the band at the end of this year. Skinny Moo will continue rocking in 2020, but please come out to our last couple public gigs to wish Charley the best on his new adventures!

We close out 2019 with a show at the Greenville Inn in Chagrin Falls. We have enjoyed performing there for almost 20 years, and look forward to more fun there in 2020.

Meanwhile, change is afoot in Skinny Moo. Founding member and drummer (and band-namer) Charley Newcomer is retiring from the Moo as of this last gig.

We are thoroughly sad to see him go, and hope that all the friends that we’ve gotten to know over the last two decades of shows will come out to wish him well on his continued musical journeys.

Meanwhile, Skinny Moo will continue to rock on in 2020 – more on that will be coming soon.  We hope to see you at the Ville to close out a year, and indeed – an era.
