Charles Elias Ingalls, more commonly known as bass music producer CharlestheFirst, has passed away at the age of 25.


Charles Elias Ingalls, more commonly known as left-field bass music producer CharlestheFirst, passed away in his sleep early this morning at a hotel in Nashville. His death is currently under investigation by the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department. CharlestheFirst was 25.

Initial news of CharlestheFirst’s passing surfaced from the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department’s press release about the ongoing investigation and was later confirmed by a statement posted to Lab Group’s Instagram account just moments ago. “Amongst many things, Charles was a larger-than-life presence that deeply moved and affected all who knew him,” the statement reads. “A son, a brother, a friend, a poet and an absolutely brilliant musician. He lived his life with a sense of magic and inspiration that most people only dream of.”

Charles we love you more than words can tell and cannot wait to be reunited with you. We promise to honor and cherish you throughout this life and into the next.

CharlestheFirst made a massive impact on the bass music scene over the past few years with albums such as The Ascent and SOLUS, as well as impressing his growing fanbase with performances at festivals like Electric Forest. More recently, he teamed up with Potions and Supertask to form Lab Group with their debut, self-titled EP released over the summer, and also joined Kompass Music Group as well. CharlestheFirst was set to play The Caverns this weekend and was gearing up to make an even larger impact on the scene in 2022. He will be missed.

Our hearts go out to CharlestheFirst’s family, friends, team, and fans around the world. Please give them respect and privacy during this difficult time.
