Pearl Charles has shared news of her cosmic new album, Magic Mirror, arriving January 15 on Kanine Records. Coinciding with the announcement, the Los Angeles-based singer is sharing a brand new single and lyric video for “What I Need,” the first official glimpse from the forthcoming record. Flaunting warm keyboards, dreamy accents of pedal steel and a mellow ’70s soft rock groove, the track opts for a laid back brand of country disco that shares as much in common with Jenny Lewis’ easy listening Americana as it does Fleetwood Mac’s sunny California studio sound. Punctuated by her sleek vocal style and fluid phrasing, Charles’ lyrics read like a tender open letter, recognizing the vitality of personal honesty and self-worth with a forthright message: “Baby, that’s what I need.”
Stream Pearl Charles’ new single “What I Need” available everywhere and purchase her new album Magic Mirror out January 15.
