I have thought a lot about how these strange times we are in have changed so many relationships, some that have become stronger, and others that have broken down. We started writing "Break With Me" one summer evening in the car on the way home from a lake, but I relate to it now more than ever", says SHY Martin. “During the year, I also thought about how I want to work with my music and chose to start my own record label to have full freedom every step of the way. This is the first song I will release on my own label, so it feels very special.”

Reflecting on her youthful insecurities and unrequited affection with raw vulnerability, Charlie delivers a smooth downtempo indie hit that’s undeniably stylish.

The new song boasts delicate vocal lines and gentle guitar licks with a tight, calming flow from beginning and to end. And while the song grabs us from the start and holds us over until the very end. It’s safe to say we’ll be looking forward to what Charlie does next soon, but in the meantime, we’ll just keep “Things” on repeat.
