Charlotte Wessels / Former Delain singer to release first solo album

Tales From Six Feet Under, the first solo album from Former Delain singer/songwriter Charlotte Wessels, will be released on 17 September 2021 via Napalm Records.

Having spent the last few months in her Six Feet Under home studio, Tales From Six Feet Under, represents her favourites from the songs she wrote and performed during this period.

“In May 2020, I started releasing a song every month on Patreon as an outlet for my surplus of music and tracks I wrote that didn’t fit my band,” Charlotte says. “The year that followed was an absolute roller coaster, from living through a global pandemic to closing a chapter so dear to me.

“It shows through these songs, made right here in my Six Feet Under home studio. Producing these songs with the support of a wonderful community has been a lifesaver during such turbulent times, and I’m happy to bring them out of the basement and into the world with this release.

“Let me tell you the Tales From Six Feet Under.”

All songs on the album were performed or programmed by Wessels, apart from her collaboration with Aliss White-Gluz on the track Lizzie.

You can watch the video for the song Soft Revolution below. “Soft Revolution was such a cathartic song to write, and it means so much to me to learn how it resonates with people,” Charlotte says. “Working on the song, I hoped it would become a piece of music that made listeners less alone in their feelings, but I never expected it would end up doing that for me as well.”
