Call Me From The Grave

by Charlie Romano (music and lyrics) and Harold Hodge Jr. (book)

Call Me From The Grave tells the story of Robert Johnson, the influential bluesman who, legend has it, sold his soul to the devil in exchange for musical prowess. Exploring themes of family, faith, and a thirst for pursuing your dream, Robert’s story is not unlike that of many artists today.
