Charles Louis Domingue was born on November 22, 1944, in Welsh, Louisiana.[1] He recorded his first single "Keep Your Arms Around Me", a regional hit, in 1965 under the name of Charles Mann, and he then kept this artist's name.[2] His biggest US hit came in 1969 with the Neil Diamond song "Red Red Wine".[3] He also achieved success in the UK with his Cajun-oriented swamp pop version of the Dire Straits' hit "Walk of Life".
Mann signed a record deal with UK-based independent record company Cooking Vinyl, who released the single in 1989 and the full-length album in 1990. Due to demand in England, Mann and his band began touring throughout the U.K., including an appearance Glastonbury Festival.[4]
In recognition of his contributions to Louisiana swamp pop music, Charles became a member of the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame in 1990. He keeps on recording and performing in this musical style.
