“Oh my, this is wonderful: dreamy, plangent, Lennon- and Elliott Smith-like in its deflated melancholia, and a tantalizing introduction to the London duo.”
The Sunday Times Culture
“a lucidly understated ode that encapsulates their dreamy aesthetic perfectly.”
The Line of Best Fit
“Reflective and meditative this subtle slice of balladry is wondrous. Showcasing Spiral’s excellent vocals and mature introspective songwriting, that intrigues and captures a feeling of wanting to live in the moment.”
God Is In The TV
"Like Karen Carpenter covering early solo Lennon, this track from the London duo is both novel and beguiling."
The Sunday Times Culture
"After sharing their impressive debut single 'Wide Eyed' last year, London-based duo Charlotte Spiral has unveiled yet another gem with their stunning new track 'Only Place I Know'."

London-based duo Charlotte Spiral today release their debut EP Ideal Life, via Chapped Lips. Exploring themes of self-hood, self-doubt, and ultimately self-belief, Ideal Life is a dark and elegant examination of rejection and defeat. The three-track release opens with the lush and nostalgic "Wide-Eyed", a song co-produced by Dan Carey (MIA, Kate Tempest, Sia, Bat For Lashes) that longs for the simple things in life. "Only Place I Know" and "End of Summer" close out the EP, exhibiting the same introspective melody that permeate the band’s sonic style.
Charlotte Spiral is a collaboration between Amy Spencer and Avi Barath. The pair met at Goldsmiths College in London and point to a wide range of artists as influences, including Rufus Wainwright, Julia Holter, Moses Sumney, Patrick Watson, Susanne Sondfør, and Beach House.
