Charlotte Dos Santos
Lush, cinematic soul that feels like a warm breeze through a forest. Ethereal vocals meet baroque arrangements for a deeply elegant, unhurried listening experience.

Charlotte Dos Santos creates a world that feels both ancient and entirely modern. Her music is a sophisticated blend of neo-soul and vocal jazz, but it is elevated by a cinematic, almost baroque sensibility. You will hear the warmth of analog production paired with unexpected instruments like the harp or sweeping string sections that recall 1970s film scores. It is music that prioritizes space, beauty, and emotional clarity over radio-ready hooks.
What truly sets her apart is her heritage and education. As a Brazilian-Norwegian artist trained at Berklee, she weaves Bossa Nova rhythmic sensibilities into the structural complexity of jazz. Her voice is a delicate instrument, often layered into ethereal choirs that feel like they are floating just above the mix. There is a tactile, organic quality to her sound - it feels like linen, wood, and sunlight.
Start with her breakthrough EP 'Cleo' to hear the foundation of her soul-jazz fusion, then move to 'Morfo' to experience her most ambitious, orchestral-leaning work. It is the perfect soundtrack for moments that require grace and a slower pace of life.
Charlotte Hall Dos Santos (born 1990 in Oslo, Norway) is a Brazilian-Norwegian jazz singer, composer, and arranger, currently based in Berlin.
