Charlie Houston - Cranberry
About...
Charlie Houston is a singer/ songwriter from Toronto, using quirky and unusual sounds to create her own. ‘Cranberry’ talks about being conscious of becoming a burden to people and trying to avoid it
Lyrics...
The lyrics discuss’ mental health, feeling lost and stuck on your own, making you freak out. It talks about wanting to find someone but only finding conversations, paired with the Chorus it feels like Charlie thinks she’d be a burden to whoever she sees
Production...
The production is light and bouncy, utilising acoustic guitars and claps to lay the foundation for the track. Charlie uses vocal chops in the track to add layers and movement, reminding me of tracks such as Alaska by Maggie Rogers
Summary...
Charlie has already gained a huge following and recognition for her honest yet catchy tracks, I’m excited to see what project she comes up with in 2024 and where her music takes her both stylistically and literally
