Though she's still picking up awards and chart placements for her 2023 album 99 Nights, Charlotte Cardin is already looking at what’s next.

The Montreal-based singer-songwriter just released a new song titled “Lonely with Our Love," a prelude to surprise EP A Week in Nashville set to come out this Friday, May 17.


"Navigating distance has become an old acquaintance of mine, and I wrote this song at a moment where being in love felt perhaps lonelier than being alone," Cardin said about the song, a piano-led ballad, on social media.

Cardin wrote the song with Nashville musician Gabe Simon, who produced Noah Kahan's smash record Stick Season and has also worked with Dua Lipa, Lana Del Rey, and more. The song, recorded in a city famed for country music, contains glimpses of the genre in its heart-wrenching harmonies and tambourine flourishes.

The upcoming EP serves as Cardin’s second release since her critically acclaimed sophomore album, 99 Nights, following the EP Une Semaine à Paris last November. 99 Nights won the Juno for album of the year in March.

Toronto's First Class Fest Revamps Lineup After 'Heartwrenching' Last-Minute Artist Cancellations

OsamaSon will now play both days of the Toronto underground rap festival (Aug. 28-29), which has added Xaviersobased, ApolloRed1 and 1oneam to the bill after Nettspend, Che and more have dropped out. "It's been the craziest 24 hours of my life," co-founder Leo Strang tells Billboard Canada.

First Class Fest is facing some serious turbulence, but is stabilizing before liftoff.

Just days before the Toronto festival, which lands at the Bowl at Sobeys Stadium on Aug. 28-29, multiple artists dropped off the bill, including one of its biggest names. Nettspend, who recently notched his first Billboard Canadian Albums placement with Early Life Crisis in March, abruptly announced that he would "not be making it to Toronto" via his Instagram story on Tuesday night (Aug. 25).
