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.

Influence Media Wins Bid to Acquire Anthem Entertainment’s Music Assets

Sources say the BlackRock-backed company bid slightly above $650 million for the assets, though the deal has yet to close.

Apparently, the third time really can be the charm, as sources say Influence Media Partners has emerged as the winner in the auction for the music assets of Anthem Entertainment, the Canadian music firm that houses music publishing assets and recorded masters royalties from the likes of Rush and Timbaland.

While two earlier efforts to sell the firm in 2017 and 2022 came up short, sources suggest that in the third go-round, the successful Goldman Sachs-shopped deal saw at least two bids come in above the $600 million mark, even though most other bidders were said to be in the $500 million to $600 million range before dropping out. In all, sources suggested that about a dozen suitors kicked the tires on Anthem.
