About Me

Charlotte Johansen's sound is acoustic pop, satirical and truthful yet optimistic and reassuring. As a performer Charlotte is compelling and genuine. Her wit and beauty make her all the more satisfying to watch, and to listen too. Her songs map her personal development as a woman and a song writer. She narrates the ebbs and flows that we all experience and though they seem personal, the themes are universal. Charlotte sings to exfoliate the soul hers and ours. She plays with a unique balance between tenderness and tenacityHer sound, a collision of pop, folk and splurges of rock have been inspired by musicians such as Michelle Shocked, Sinead OConnor and Ani Difranco. Her guitar playing combines dynamic finger-picking with powerfully strummed chords.I play every Friday night at Elevation restaurant and bar 473 Scenic Drive Auckland west.
