With her lilting voice and timeless sensibilities, Charlotte Le Lievre makes music that hits the heart in the unique tradition of classic country songwriters. Her songs strive to connect with the authenticity of human experience, navigating grief, joy and collective struggle. Drawing upon an array of early country and folk styles, Charlotte and band pay homage to the origins of this music, whilst offering up insightful commentary on contemporary dilemmas.

Charlotte released her debut album Songs from the Barrier Line in March 2023 to widespread acclaim. The record debuted at #4 on the ARIA Australian Country Album Charts and #3 on the Australian Independent Record Labels Association 100% Independent Album Charts. The record further received a coveted spot on the Best Country Music on Bandcamp for March 2023 and was nominated for Best Country Work at the 2023 Music Victoria Awards and Contemporary Folk Music Album of the Year at the 2023 Australian Folk Music Awards.
