Charlotte Dos Santos
List Pick
June 5, 2026
Charlotte Dos Santos returns with 'Roses', a song that feels like it was written in the golden hour of memory. The Brazilian-Norwegian singer, composer and arranger has always moved through jazz, soul and R&B with a rare effortlessness, and here she settles into something timeless, with strings that unfurl like a slow exhale opening into a beautifully constructed melody. Her voice carries the kind of ether and upper register warmth that feels lifted straight from a late seventies soul record, sitting inside the arrangement with total ease and grace. The writing is tender, heartfelt and lingering of a love not lost so much as left behind, still appearing uninvited like a lullaby, the ghost of a sweet romance pressing gently through the quiet. Caught in the rapture of shared memories, like roses. The cover art mirrors everything the music suggests - romantic, warm, and faintly vintage. 'Roses' sounds like a gorgeous song that has always existed.
