Charlotte Plank has released her new single ‘Ellen’.
The track follows her recent single ‘Stargirl’, and serves as a letter to her younger self, with its title drawn from her own middle name.
“Ellen is my middle name – signifying the girl in between,” Charlotte explains. “The song was written about a time in my life where I had lost faith in music (with it being such a heavenly but hellish place at times) and myself. I was working two jobs, trying to figure out a way to make music work whilst being on a bit of a path of self destruction and being lost with who I was. I had so much bubbling under the surface and more to give than my jobs in customer service – but I was scared to try. And when I wrote this at 20 years old I thought: if I could hold on, battle the demons and ‘make it’ by 27 – beyond some of my idols like Amy Winehouse & Kurt Cobain, I’d be okay.”
