Charlotte Le Lievre writes country songs that cut deep — honest, raw, and grounded in real life. With a voice that’s equal parts vulnerable and commanding, her music pulls from early country and folk traditions to make sense of grief, joy, resistance, and the stories we carry. Charlotte spent her 20s hitchhiking, living at blockades in remote corners of the continent, and learning how to live with grief. Her style and sound combine the richness of that life experience with a deep admiration for the roots of country and folk music.
Charlotte's debut album, Songs from the Barrier Line (2023), made an immediate impact, debuting at #4 on the ARIA Australian Country Album Chart and #3 on the AIR (Australian Independent Record Labels Association) Album Chart. The album was featured on Bandcamp’s Best Country Music list for March 2023, and earned nominations for Contemporary Folk Album of the Year at the Australian Folk Music Awards and Best Country Work at the Music Victoria Awards.
Renowned for her captivating live performances, Charlotte has shared stages with Jimbo Mathus (USA), The Burning Hell (CAN), and C.W. Stoneking, and has played acclaimed festivals across the country including Out on the Weekend, Woodford Folk Festival, Nannup Music Festival, and The Town Folk Festival. She showcased at BIGSOUND in Brisbane in 2024 and participated in the 2025 Seed Fund Workshop.
Charlotte is currently working on her anticipated second album, Grief Knows No Borders, slated for release in Spring 2026 — a collection that promises to further explore the depth and scope of her songwriting voice.
