In 2002 the band released an EP titled Redtown. Its debut full-length album, Five O'Clock, was released in 2004, and their song "Five O'Clock" appeared on local radio charts.[2]

Five O'Clock Charlie disbanded in 2007, shortly after the release of their EP 'Watercolours'.[3] In December 2007 Five O'Clock Charlie played a farewell show at the Pawnshop in Edmonton, Alberta with Edmonton rockers, Mark Birtles Project.
