NEWS! Album Release Date, Single Release date, Release ShowOn September 20th my new album (title tba) - for which I'm teaming up with the best - will be released into the world via Napalm Records! The release show will be on October 4th in Utrecht’s TivoliVredenburg - ticket sales are starting TODAY! - link in bio- The first single The Exorcism will release May 16th, 2024.From the press statement:On the new album, that represents a dark and soulful trip through different stages of fear and breaking free - CHARLOTTE WESSELS adds bucketloads of bombast to genre-bending songwriting, as spellbinding melancholia and dark catchy elements meet progressive and heavier soundscapes.The former DELAIN vocalist’s earlier solo endeavors already gained Wessels a remarkable number of devotees, but for the upcoming release Wessels is raising the bar significantly. While still writing and producing the songs in her Six Feet Under basement home studio and sharing their first incarnations with her patrons, now she’s taking the songs to the next level with a band of her fellow ex-DELAIN cohorts Timo Somers (guitars, additional arrangements), Otto Schimmelpenninck van der Oije (bass) and Joey Marin de Boer (drums) as well as Sophia Vernikov (piano/hammond), contributing to the new heavier sound. The album also features arrangements by Vikram Shankar (Silent Skies, Pain of Salvation), cello by Elianne Anemaat, was mixed by Guido Aalbers (Muse, Coldplay, The Gathering) and mastered by Andy VanDette (Porcupine Tree, VOLA, Dream Theater) CHARLOTTE WESSELS states:This album is significant for on the one hand telling of such a personal journey - through its unintended theme of fear and obsessive thoughts - and at the same time representing the joy of finding the songs true forms with everyone involved in the making of this record. There were moments in the studio with the band that truly reminded me of why I love making music in the first place, and I don’t think I’ve ever been as excited about music going out into the world. This is the album I want to re-introduce myself with, and I’m so glad to do it with this amazing team.

ingle cover reveal • Chasing Sunsets • 13-6-24 Chasing Sunsets, the second single from my upcoming album, The Obsession, will be yours on June 13th, 2024! This was a favourite on Patreon when I shared the song’s first incarnation there, and I can’t wait for you to hear its final form
Single cover reveal • Dopamine ft @simonesimons • 11-7-24💊 "Dopamine" featuring the one and only Simone Simons, the third single of my upcoming album The Obsession and will be yours next week, July 11th, 2024! 🗓️ Dealing with the topic of SSRI- induced numbness, Dopamine out of all songs on the album made the biggest transformation from it’s first incarnation to the heavy band version that appears on the album. And the beautiful guest vocals by Simone absolutely complete the song.You can pre-save Dopamine now through the link in my bio. It really helps with the algorithm, much appreciated! 🙏
