COCO CHARLES returns with ‘L.A Dust’ — her first release after pressing pause to raise a family
After years of singing, writing, and dreaming in the background, alternative pop artist COCO CHARLES is finally stepping into her own spotlight with ‘L.A Dust’, the luminous first single from her upcoming debut album, arriving in 2026.
For COCO, this release isn’t just another song — it’s a reclamation. Like so many women, she put her creative ambitions on hold to raise a family, quietly shelving her dreams while the world kept spinning. “No one really talks about how women are expected to press pause on their careers to become mothers — and how hard it can be to press play again,” she says.
‘L.A Dust’ captures that tension: the pull between restless ambition and everyday domesticity, the yearning to chase the dream without losing yourself in the chaos of life’s responsibilities. With lyrics like “book a sitter, I’m a star”, COCO finds humour and honesty in the balancing act — a wink to every parent who’s tried to squeeze passion between school runs and bedtime routines.
It’s a shimmering, confident debut — playful enough to dance to, yet grounded in the emotional truth of starting over. “I joke that I don’t want to have to put the cost of the concert on my mortgage,” COCO laughs, “but really, this is about showing my kids that it’s never too late to do what you love.”
This is the sound of a woman returning to herself — and inviting others to do the same. COCO CHARLES is one to listen for, and one to watch.
