Charles Esten: The Nashville Heart
Charles Esten first broke out on TV as the sharp-witted Chip Diller on The CW’s comedy Whose Line Is It Anyway? before landing the role of Rayna Jaymes’s guitarist, Deacon Claybourne, on Nashville. Born in Pittsburgh in 1965, Esten has parlayed his comedy and musical chops into a dual career of acting and live performance. On top of his TV credits, he’s released several country-flavored albums and routinely sells out intimate festival stages and the famed Bluebird Cafe in Nashville.
