Charlie Houston is entering a new chapter, one that feels less like a reinvention and more like a return to self. After several genre-blurring releases and a debut album that showcased her range, Charlie has landed on a sound she calls ‘Tomboy Pop’, a raw, instinct-driven fusion of contrasts.

The ‘tomboy’ identity has long been a throughline in Charlie’s life. Growing up queer, she moved through the world with a bold, unfiltered confidence. As she got older, that identity became something more complicated, shaped by outside expectations and assumptions. With this new sound, Charlie looks to reclaim the word on her own terms.

That reclamation begins with the new single “SkiDay”, which she describes as “a sex positive tomboy anthem. Lyrically it's about finding it kind of hot when someone treats you like a little bitch, sonically though it showcases the confidence required to admit that."

Last year, Charlie Houston released her debut album, Big After I Die, a captivating 9-song journey through the uncertainty and beauty of self-discovery during life’s transitional phases. Since the release of the album Charlie has been nominated for a JUNO Award for Underground Dance Single Of The Year for her track “La Vérité” alongside Jesse Mac Cormack, and Brö; and opened for The Beaches at NXNE. The album also saw the track “Lewps” featured in the remake of I Know What You Did Last Summer.
