Tones and I has become associated with hidden deeper meanings and personal insights; her breakthrough single, ‘Dance Monkey’, cryptically references her stint as a busker, a decision which carved her way to fame.
‘Charlie’ follows along similar lines to ‘Dance Monkey’, continuing Tones’ lyrical focus on what is personal and real, and the title is a touching tribute to her dog. The track is all about having fun, with the carefree lyrics ‘Charlie doesn’t worry in the mornin’ / There’s nothing really ever on his mind’. Having Charlie as the main figure in her musical creation emphasises the elements of vitality and laid-back juvenility that Tones and I’s releases characteristically adopt.
Tones and I is currently in the midst of performing at a huge number of festivals around the world, alongside continuing the North American leg of her headline tour and preparing to join Macklemore as a guest performer on a series of shows with Imagine Dragons.
