It’s not often, especially in this age, we are able to witness the result of an artist who gives up everything to pursue, discover, and refine their creative spirits.

The Glass Child, aka Charlotte Eriksson, left everything she had and knew at age 18. She moved to London with intentions of giving all of herself to her art. Four years later, a growing following of 29,000+, a #2 spot on the Swedish iTunes charts, radio spins on BBC6, Svergies Radio, and 3FM and recognized as Breakthrough Indie Artist of the Year by Lemonade Magazine; I would say Charlotte has succeeded in her quest.

Also, she has published a book – Empty Roads and Broken Bottles; in search for The Great Perhaps. It sold out in 3 days…whil in the pre-order phase.

Ms. Eriksson is a wandering soul. A free spirit. A creative entity. With nothing but a guitar and her will, Charlotte played wherever she could and slept on the floors of new fans. After spending a year in Berlin wandering, discovering, and growing; The Glass Child is ready to release her new album in October.

After reaching 249% funding through her PledgeMusic crowdfunding campaign, it is obvious the people want more Charlotte.

“It’s bigger this time. I’m wiser this time. This is not about the final physical product, like a CD. This is about the impact those songs can have inside someone. My mission is to seek those who need to hear those words and melodies and stories, and if I can touch one soul out there and make them feel like they belong, then I will be happy.”

”I wanted to turn my life into my art. My very existence into a poem. This is my story – it’s been a beautiful fight. It still is.”

This album is one of the best I’ve heard from a solo female singer/songwriter in a long time. It’s been playing off and on for the past two weeks and it isn’t old yet. Charlotte is a true artist; one that has dedicated her entire existence to pursuing art and sharing it with the people of the world.

This is a rare find. Go bookmark her website and get ready to grab your copy of I Must Be Gone and Live, Or Stay and Die on October 21st. You can also connect on FB or Twitter.
