Rising alternative pop voice steps into a new era with Blue Élan Records and previews forthcoming debut album
Rising singer-songwriter Charlotte Dickson ushers in an exciting new chapter today with the release of her deeply personal new single, “Happy for Now.” Now stepping into a new chapter with Blue Élan Records, the track offers a poignant introduction to an artist whose music lives at the intersection of emotional honesty and modern alternative pop.
Having first taken the stage at just 12 years old performing intimate acoustic sets at wineries, weddings, and local venues, Charlotte has steadily evolved into a compelling voice in the alternative pop space. “Happy for Now” reflects that growth — pairing melodic vulnerability with reflective lyricism that explores relationships, healing, and the quiet resilience found in temporary peace.
“My infatuation only seemed to grow stronger while he lingered elsewhere, keeping his unfaithfulness hidden in the dark,” Charlotte shares. “But the truth has a way of surfacing — and Happy for Now is about that moment of clarity, when you stop chasing something that was never fully yours and find peace in simply moving forward.”
Known for treating her songwriting as a poetic public diary, Charlotte creates music rooted in lived experience, with themes of emotional well-being and self-discovery at the forefront. Her hope is that by sharing her own journey, listeners might find comfort in theirs.
With this new single setting the tone, Charlotte has finished work on her debut full-length album, slated for release later this year.
