About this listen

On this episode of Spout, host Nick Major sits down with genre-bending artist Charlotte Sands for a wide-open conversation about touring, creativity, independence, and the strange, exhilarating world of being a musician in 2025. Charlotte opens up about her move from Nashville to LA, why touring feels like her “dream reality,” and how she balances stimulation, routine, and the chaos of life on the road. She and Nick swap travel-hacks (including an inflatable neck pillow demo), laugh about Halloween guilt, and dive into what it’s like to thrive creatively in an era where social media demands nonstop output. They unpack Charlotte’s sonic evolution—from rock-leaning releases to acoustic influences and experimental pop—plus the stories behind her latest singles “Afterlife,” “Hush,” and more. Charlotte shares how she approaches genre without limits, what inspires her writing, and how she unexpectedly ended up co-writing “In My Head” for Demi Lovato. The conversation also explores her childhood music roots, the blue-hair origin story, her dad’s DIY home studio, touring with Youngblud, collaborating with The Maine and Taking Back Sunday, and what it actually felt like to attend (and play) Warped Tour for the very first time. Charlotte also teases new music, new shows, and what fans can expect heading into 2026—plus an honest look at the pressure, thrill, and gratitude that drive her as an independent artist.
