Charlotte Dos Santos

There is an unending elegance and beauty in Charlotte Dos Santos’ music. Beyond the undeniable authenticity that permeates each track, her music feels connected to the world in a very genuine sense. Connected to her own stories, the stories of others, nature, and the world around her. It’s as if each track works off a fundamental sonic frequency of the environment. And it’s not like Dos Santos is playing within the confines of a single environment. A self-described nomad, Dos Santos draws inspiration from every part of her journey. Valencia to Berlin, Boston to Oslo, there is a piece of her history in every track.

This week, we’re featuring her 2021 single “Patience”. A meditative, trance-inducing track that bursts with a plethora of bright sonic colors. If the harmony is like a field of wildflowers blooms in slow motion, Dos Santos’ ethereal vocals are the golden sunbeams bursting through clouds. A plaintive harp and luxurious strings serve as the perfect setting for the complex vocal harmonies and lifting melodies, and a hip, almost 90’s inspired beat drives the track forward with perfectly complementary energy.
