Audience of One

Release Date: September 4, 2024

Produced by Bonny Light Horseman’s Josh Kaufman, “Audience of One” is the latest page in Charlotte Cornfield’s beloved and flourishing songbook.

Once described as “Canada’s best-kept secret” by Rolling Stone, Cornfield’s critically lauded craft has long led an impassioned trail of discovery behind her, with an ever-expanding circle of fans and esteemed peers. Speaking to the deeper meaning behind her latest single, Cornfield shares the following:

"I’ve always been fascinated by the way that fear permeates my dreams. It meanders through vaguely recognizable surroundings, attaching itself to shadowy figures along the way. When I wrote this song I was picturing myself in one of those dream states, crashing an out of control vehicle and then performing to no one except a single ghost-like audience member. In the chorus I am reasoning with myself, trying to let go of the fear and worry that haunts me. I recorded “Audience of One” with Josh Kaufman after we had finished making most of Could Have Done Anything. Annie Nero sang this stunning backing vocal, and it just felt like a song that needed to live on its own."

“Audience of One” follows the release of Cornfield’s fifth album, 2023’s Could Have Done Anything – which the FADER praised as “full of the remarkable tenderness and deft storytelling,” and eloquently described by Pitchfork as being “a brief and lovely alt-folk record, vivid and unmoored from place and time.”
