Charlotte Sands @ Marquis Theater

Charlotte Sands rocked her show at Marquis Theater on March 23, 2024 in Denver, CO. With Cloe Wilder and Senses warming up the stage, it made for the perfect night.

Cloe Wilder

Cloe Wilder emerged into teenagehood with a distinctive vision, complete with earthy melodies, a breathy vocal tone and nostalgic storytelling. Comparable to a Floridian young Taylor Swift, the 17-year-old’s intimate lyrics depict dream-like recollections of place, home and internal feelings you want to live inside forever. For fans of bedroom pop, Lana Del Rey and Phoebe Bridgers, Cloe’s evocative music is sentimental for a childhood that was warm and loving. “My music is looking backwards but never like there’s a piece of me missing or I feel empty. It just feels like you want to connect with it again,” she explains. This vulnerability has drawn a growing fanbase of teenage girls to her like she’s a lightning rod for those seeking a confidant.

Senses

Los Angeles rock trio senses cultivate a unique pop-rock edge by utilizing dark synths, driving guitars, pounding drums and unique storytelling. The band, which originated when singer Madison Taylor met guitarist Josh Bissell and drummer Nick Sampson on Craigslist, prides themselves on their anthemic, relatable songwriting.

Leading into the release of their debut EP, take me out of here, LA-based trio senses have announced they will be joining viral pop-rock singer Leah Kate on her upcoming “The Super Over Tour” this fall followed by 5 dates with Boys Like Girls.

Charlotte Sands

Charlotte Sands joins songwriting influences like Sheryl Crow and Grace Potter with later emo-pop inspirations. She rose to fame in 2020 when she went viral with “Dress.” This song about a highly publicized Harry Styles fashion cover shoot. The track was included on her debut EP, Special, in 2021. Sands’ first Top Ten entry on the Billboard Alternative Airplay chart came the following year in the form of “Loved You a Little,” a collaboration with Taking Back Sunday and the Maine.

Massachusetts native Charlotte Sands left her home in Hopkinton at the age of 18 to make her way to Nashville, Tennessee. Finding a roommate from an ad, she planned to spend a year in Music City before attending the Berklee College of Music. She never made it to Boston, instead writing and recording songs on her own. Early releases like “Phantom Pain” and the self-conscious “Life of the Party” appeared in the late 2010s.

Sands’ popularity exploded in late 2020, when she released “Dress,” an uncharacteristically playful, synth bass-heavy track celebrating pop star Harry Styles’ dress-clad photo shoot for Vogue magazine. The song eventually cracked the Top 40 of the Billboard Pop Airplay chart. She collected “Dress” and some of her prior singles on the debut EP Special in early 2021. A second EP, Love and Other Lies, followed in early 2022, a year that found Sands opening tours for the likes of My Chemical Romance, Yungblud, and the Maine. That May, she made her debut in the Top Ten of the Alternative Airplay chart with an appearance on the Maine track “Loved You a Little” alongside musical influence Taking Back Sunday.
