Charlotte Colace
List Pick
March 13, 2026
Berlin-based soul singer-songwriter Charlotte Colace makes a striking introduction with 'Confrontations', taken from her debut EP No Way But Through. Blending her French-Cuban heritage with a deep reverence for classic soul, Colace delivers a sound that feels both timeworn and newly unearthed. Built on a gritty, 60s-inspired soul foundation, 'Confrontations' carries the raw, towering emotion that defines the EP. The track captures the restless feeling of late-night reflection where old conversations replay in your mind long after the room has gone quiet. Colace moves effortlessly between French and English, her voice rich and controlled, giving the song a sense of intimacy and vulnerability without ever losing its strength. There’s a cinematic quality to the arrangement: warm instrumentation, a lingering saxophone solo, and a slow-burning groove that feels almost like drifting down a misty street somewhere in Havana after midnight. It’s nostalgic without feeling derivative, familiar in the way memories sometimes are - slightly blurred but emotionally vivid. As an introduction, this debut EP positions Charlotte Colace as a compelling new voice in contemporary soul: rooted in tradition, yet personal and self-assured.
