Philadelphia-native folk singer-songwriter Charlotte Morris returns with her latest single, “Created Me.” It is the fourth pre-release from her upcoming album , both sides , out May 1st.
Discussing the new single Charlotte shared “There are so many things in my life that I never noticed were because of how my parents did things, and they did it because [of] their parents…This idea stuck with me for a while…Then finally, as I found myself reflecting more and more on the subtle yet profound ways in which our ancestors shaped us, through traits, traditions, and even the smallest quirks, ‘created me’ came to be.” If the record-in-full can be viewed as a tapestry of her ancestry, each verse becomes a separate tribute to her family tree’s legacy. Morris’s reflective thoughts can also be heard in her lyrics: “Will the laugh my daddy taught to me / Continue down our family tree / To children that I one day hope to have…Do I have her smile from hundreds of years ago / Do I squint my eyes like he did when he was a kid / It is more of who came before…”.
This latest single explores the variety of ways our ancestors shaped us through traditions, traits, and memories. The song carries a mix of Folk and Americana elements to provide an instrumental that lays a foundation for the heartfelt lyrics to take centre stage.
Charlotte shares a personally drawn performance that comes straight from the heart. Every lyric comes to life through a vocal rendition that carries across the pure sentiment and heartwarming tones, which leaves you with a sense of feel-good energy.
