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.

CNE 2026 Bell SOUNDSTAGE Lineup: Charlotte Day Wilson, JoJo, Finger Eleven and More

As part of its partnership with NXNE and a renewed focus on live music, CNE will also welcome a special soon-to-be revealed global headliner presented by Billboard Canada on Aug. 28.

The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) is embracing its musical roots with a high-profile lineup for 2026.

The beloved long-running fair, baptized The Ex by Torontonians, has unveiled the full list of artists who will be headlining the newly-named Bell SOUNDSTAGE at the Bandshell to celebrate the event's 147th edition. Canadian stars like Charlotte Day Wilson and Finger Eleven as well as international pop star JoJo have been added to this year's programming, which reflects a diverse mix of renowned names and rising stars across a multitude of genres including pop, hip-hop, Punjabi music and soca, among others. They join previously announced acts like Lights, Lupe Fiasco, Shaggy and more.

This year, the exhibition is partnering with Toronto music festival NXNE, to modernize its musical programming with chart-topping artists and newer acts, and revamping the Bandshell as the Bell SOUNDSTAGE. “Music is such a massive part of who we are,” Mark Holland, CEO of the CNE, told Billboard Canada in April during his Executive of the Week interview. "Connecting everybody to that is a democratic mission that we are really invested in."
