The track is from the artist’s upcoming sophomore LP Sugar Coat.
Thanks to her likable personality and charisma and engaging, distinctive vocals, Hartlepool artist Charlotte Grayson has carved out something of a niche for herself in the UK music scene. The singer-songwriter’s candid songwriting and the engaging, infectious nature of her melodic sound have spawned a litany of thoughtful releases over the past few years, with the most recent being her new single ‘Mug’.
The track unfolds as the artist watches in horror as a friend makes a fool of herself on a night out, masking her discomfort and despair within the track’s effortlessly groovy disco beats and dizzyingly catchy chorus. Charlotte’s sharp sense of lyrical flair and creative storytelling makes for a track that feels almost cinematic in scope, endlessly building and transforming from a sparse piano track to a full blown explosion of sound. The track is a perfect showcase of Charlotte Grayson and the different facets to her sound, and above all, the winning sense of personality and guile that she possesses.
