Charlotte Dos Santos 18 +

With a warm, visual and cinematic signature, she has established an artistry that unites melodic finesse with deeply personal storytelling. She debuted with the critically acclaimed album Cleo (2017), a genre-breaking work that combined vintage samples, jazz harmonies and experimental production. The release was praised by The Fader, The Cut and Pitchfork, among others, and received a die cast 6 in several Norwegian newspapers such as VG, Dagens Næringsliv and Dagbladet.

In 2022, she followed up with the album Morfo (Because Music), which marked a new high point in her career and secured her the Spellemannprisen in the R&B/Soul category. The album was described as one of the strongest releases of the year by international media such as The Guardian, Clash Magazine, The Vinyl Factory and Bandcamp, and demonstrated a further development of her sound – with psychedelia, MPB references and introspective themes of love, growth and transformation.

In October, Dos Santos released Neve Azul – an intimate EP recorded live on tape in Oslo, where her Brazilian roots, warm vocal expression and melodious distinctiveness come to the fore. With lyrics in Portuguese and English, the project is deeply rooted in old Soul, Jazz and Bossa Nova.
