New York City Times Square Debut
There’s something about this song that lingers. Jimmy Charles wrote They Grow Up Too Fast for the people who’ve sat in the quiet after a long day and thought, “where did the time go?” The first steps, the bedtime songs, the ride to school that felt like nothing but wasn’t. It’s for the parents who’d give anything to rewind.
And on May 12, it’ll be up on a billboard in Times Square for the world to see. If you're in New York, look up. You’ll find it on the big screen.

Meet the Artist
Jimmy Charles doesn’t make music to chase trends or fit into a box. He makes it because it’s the one thing that’s always felt honest. He grew up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, spent years chasing the Nashville dream, and along the way built something real, one show, one song, one listener at a time. His voice is raw in the best way, like someone who's lived a little, lost a little, and still found something worth singing about.
His songs tend to stick with people. They're not background noise. They say what a lot of folks feel but don’t always know how to say. Things about family, time, mistakes, and holding on when it matters. They Grow Up Too Fast is one of those tracks. It came straight from lived experience and landed in the hearts of people who’ve watched the years move faster than they expected.
Jimmy’s shared the stage with some of country music’s biggest names, but he still plays like every show could be his last.
