Hailing from Hartlepool in the northeast of England, singer-songwriter Charlotte Grayson has spent the last five years sharing her exciting musical vision. Since her debut single “Maybe” became a BBC Introducing Track of the Week in 2018, Charlotte has been winning over fans across the UK and beyond with her studio releases and live performances.
The success of her early output earned her multiple BBC live sessions, including performances at the Summer Session Live shows in Middlesbrough Town Hall Courtyard. Across an impressive catalogue of work including multiple singles and two records, Charlotte has shown incredible versatility, flowing from the stripped-back Americana of her early works to the indie pop and rock styles she’s since leaned into.
Following the promotional tour for her second album, Charlotte found herself at a crossroads; with her live band, The Shame Areas, disbanded, Charlotte decided to take a step back. Retreating to intimate acoustic performances, just her and her guitar, she rediscovered the simplicity and pure connection that first inspired her to make music.
Now, Charlotte is back with new material, releasing her latest single titled “Get Outta My Yard,” a track which serves as both a farewell to The Shame Areas and a superb showcase of her ability to thrive through change. Before parting ways, the band agreed to record a couple of songs they had worked on together and the single came to life at Hartlepool’s Tower Street studio.
Laying down a bouncy pop-focused indie rock jam, the tap of drums brings in a grooving arrangement of twanging guitar rhythms, pulsing bass lines and lively vocal leads spinning instantly catchy melodic hooks above. Capturing a swaggering blues-inflected vibe, the uptempo energy and slick musicianship capped by commanding vocal performance combine to delivery an infectious listening experience that’s energising and memorable throughout.
Brimming funky aesthetic and shifting rhythms, the track builds to a rousing finale of charging instrumentation and impassioned vocal work to cast an invigorating sound. Marking her return to releasing music in spectacular fashion, “Get Outta My Yard” sees Charlotte Grayson offer a stellar new single that opens an exciting new chapter in her enduring musical story.
