One of our highlights of last year was witnessing Charlotte Sands hold court at Boston Calling, a short marathon run from her hometown of Hopkinton. This week, the Nashville-based alt-pop artist flips the switch and brings Massachusetts to the masses, hitting the road with PVRIS for a UK and European tour that stretches into next month. And she’s doing with with a healthy dose of empower-pop via an emphatic new single called “Alright.”
The track is said to chronicle a profound turning point in Sands’ story, sorting through feelings of angst, anxiety, and alienation. And it even shout-outs Boston in the lyrics.
“‘Alright’ is about having hope when it feels nearly impossible and forcing yourself to see the light at the end of the tunnel, holding onto even the slightest chance that it will get better,” Sands says. “We wrote this song with the hope that it could remind even one person that life does go on and nothing is forever. The future can be so daunting especially in times of uncertainty, and it can so often feel like you’re stuck without a way out, but this song is a sign to keep moving forward because it will get better.”
