Alice Merton – Charlie Brown

Alice Merton is one of those artists who always keeps you on your toes. As a talent who consistently pushes the boundaries of pop, you never quite know what to expect… But whatever she does release is always guaranteed to be brilliant.

‘Charlie Brown’ is the musician’s latest offering, and serves as a powerful reminder to keep pushing ourselves, and to not settle for less than what we wish for.

‘Charlie Brown’ is a wake-up call to get back into the driver’s seat of your life. It’s a hymn to keep going – no matter how big the obstacles may be. Stop settling for the apparent security of everyday life, but fight for what is important to you. Thus, the song’s message is not only addressed to Charlie. All of us could do with leaving our comfort zone sometimes, try things and to stand up for our dreams.

To date, Merton’s music has amassed more than a billion cumulative streams. She’s also toured all around the world, performed on primetime shows internationally, and shared stages with outfits as prominent as Bastille.

Alice Merton – Same Team

Berlin-based musician Alice Merton returns with an addictive alt-pop banger in the form of new single ‘Same Team’.

Taken from Merton’s forthcoming sophomore album, the production provides listeners with a jolting, electro-meets-industrial explosion of energy that contrasts beautifully against the song’s deep sense of introspection.

“‘Same Team’ is one of the first songs I wrote for the album. I had been going through a lot of personal and work-related conflicts. I felt like I had been pulled into worlds that I didn’t understand, and having conversations with people in which we just didn’t speak the same language. A team goes through ups and downs, but often pulls together to become even stronger-but in some cases it does the exact opposite. I started to question: what do Ido if that team makes me doubt myself and the decisions that we make?”

New album S.I.D.E.S. is out on 17th June 2022 via Paper Plane Records Int.

Alice Merton – Vertigo

A tremendously epic blend of indie-rock and pop from German talent Alice Merton. This star has really rocketed to fame in recent years, with over 620 cumulative streams across all her music and also serving as a judge on the German edition of ‘The Voice’.

‘Vertigo’ was inspired by a real-life incident where she randomly started to feel dizzy, and had a rush of vertigo while waiting to enter a Berlin nightclub.

“I felt so helpless the next morning. How is it possible to love playing in front of huge audiences, when you feel anxious about being judged by strangers in public? All I could think was, why can’t I let go?”
