Summary at a Glance

Performing a mix of their original music and covers, Williams and Tyler put on at least two full concerts a day on TikTok Live, although they have taken a break recently due to Tyler’s vocal problems.

Before, you might have had the chance to buy tickets to a gig and watch your favourite artist once every few years, but fans of Charlie Tyler can watch the duo perform live, for free, every single day.

Made up of singer Charlie Tyler, 23, and guitar-player Russell James Williams, 35, the pop rock duo has 250,000 followers on TikTok and owe their rise in fame to livestreaming.

Performing several times every day can be tiring, but Tyler said she is “aware that we’re here to give them a good time and a lot of people use it for a way to get out of what they’re doing and be in the zone with us”.

With two albums set to come out this year, the duo, who picked up the award for UK Number One Music Creator on TikTok Live this month, are showing no signs of letting up.
