Getting to know Canadian Singer/Songwriter Nuela Charles

3x JUNO-Award nominated Nuela Charles is an alternative/soul singer-songwriter known for her soulful vocals and captivating stage presence, solidifying herself as a Canadian music staple. Born in Kenya, raised in Switzerland, Canada and the Bahamas before settling in Canada, Charles’ music is infused with her multicultural upbringing, giving a fresh and diverse flare to her sound.

Accompanying her latest single “Space,” is the addition of “Nerve” – a collaboration with Don Mills multi-platinum/diamond record producer Don Mills (Giveon, Snoh Allegra, Juice WRLD), Laura Welsh (Fifty Shades of Grey Soundtrack) and James Edgar, the track is another example of the sass and grit that spouts from Charles’ impassioned stories and sound. The song has Bond-esque strings, courtesy of JUNO nominated producer/mixer Ryan Worsley who helped finish the production, that fill the chorus in tension and a throbbing bassline which provides a backdrop for the layered, harmonious vocals. Charles explains, “As a woman, there are many empowerment songs out there, but this one takes a more sassier approach saying – don’t try me, don’t test me”. The track is highly empowering and rich in confidence.

Charles has brought her distinct voice to various stages over the last several

years – having performed notably at Reeperbahn Festival in Germany, making

her UK debut in London, and making her US debut at the uber-coveted “It’s A

School Night” by personal invitation by tastemaker and KCRW radio host Chris

Douridas. Over the last year, Charles shared the stage as direct support for

some of Canada’s musical icons – including Sam Roberts Band, Jann Arden and Stars.
