ALICE MERTON SHARES THE NEW SINGLE ‘CHARLIE BROWN’

Alice Merton’s two studio albums (MINT & S.I.D.E.S.) saw the British-German alternative-pop artist reach over a billion streams and three million sales. She has been captivating audiences all over the world ever since she released her debut single “No Roots” (US Gold, multiple Platinum awards in Europe). Now she returns with her new single “Charlie Brown”.

After having finished a North American and European Tour with the British Indie Pop Band “Bastille” last year, Merton found herself back in the studio, writing with Chris Wood aka “Woody” the Drummer from Bastille and Songwriter/Producer Matt Wills. Merton recalls “It was honestly one of the best times of my life, getting to tour with such a lovely group of people, and then creating music together” William Farquarson (Bass player in Bastille) joined the session a few weeks later and out came “Charlie Brown”. Finished off with production by Paul Whalley (Waste My Life, The Other Side) and Mixed by Jon Kelly (Kate Bush, Freddy Mercury, Duffy) and mastered by Sascha Busy Bühren. 

The video was filmed in London and written and directed by Alice. At her side was choreographer Lyn Lim with whom she worked with on Lash Out and Blindside and her trusted Director of Photography Elias Koehler (Why So Serious, Same Team, Blindside, Funny Business). Together they created a world where Charlie seems to be a bit confused and depressed with his life situation, but Alice is adamant that he realizes how special he is.
