  Charlotte Cardin

  Born in Montreal and based in Paris for the past few years, Charlotte Cardin shines on the global stage thanks to her striking authenticity and emotional depth. Named Billboard’s Global Woman of the Year in 2025, the Canadian singer-songwriter has amassed hundreds of millions of streams worldwide, confirming her remarkable international reach. She has graced some of the world’s most renowned stages — from Bonnaroo to Festival d’Été de Québec to Les Vieilles Charrues — earning praise from major outlets such as Harper’s BAZAAR, W Magazine, TF1, and Le Parisien.

  In late 2024, following a triumphant sold-out show at the Zénith de Paris and a standout performance on Star Academy, Charlotte was thrust into the spotlight with the single Feel Good. The song quickly became a true phenomenon, standing out as the most-played track on French radio and television. It sustained over three million weekly streams for several weeks and earned Platinum certification.

  Released in 2023, Charlotte Cardin’s second album, 99 Nights, marked a major turning point in her career. The project brought her international visibility, with a billboard in Times Square, a dedicated Apple Music 1 radio show, a COLORS performance, and a debut at #9 on Spotify’s Global Debut Chart. In Canada, the album was widely acclaimed, earning JUNO Awards for Album of the Year and Pop Album of the Year.

  Charlotte first broke through in 2021 with Phoenix, a critically acclaimed debut that garnered six JUNO Award nominations and four wins, including Album of the Year and Single of the Year for Meaningless. Certified Platinum in Canada, Phoenix made Charlotte the first Canadian artist to reach the top of the Canadian Billboard chart since Céline Dion in 2016.

  Following the Big Boy EP and Main Girl EP, Cardin emerged as an international phenomenon with her 2021 debut Phoenix. At the 2022 JUNO Awards, the LP took home “Album of the Year” and “Pop Album of the Year,” while Meaningless garnered “Single of the Year” and she personally received “Artist of the Year.” Inciting unanimous tastemaker applause, HYPEBAE christened her “one of Canada’s brightest young talents.” Following sold-out headline dates and powerhouse turns at Bonnaroo and Festival d’Été de Québec, Cardin topped the bill at Osheaga in 2021, marking a momentous Montréal homecoming.

  Todiefor

  To/Die/For is a Finnish gothic metal band. The band began in early 1999, when the musicians from the hard rock band Mary-Ann (which had existed since 1993) decided to change their musical style to gothic metal, modifying the band's name as well. In July of that year, after recording a self-financed EP entitled Deeper Sin, they signed a record deal with Spinefarm Records.

  Their debut album - All Eternity - was released in Finland by the end of that year and the band then signed contracts with Nuclear Blast (for Europe) and Pony Canyon (for Japan). In 2000, the band toured Europe together with Dark Tranquillity, Sentenced and In Flames. Epilogue was released in 2001 and was followed by a tour with Lacrimosa.

  The album Jaded was released in 2003 and in August of that year, vocalist Jarno Perätalo left the band. He assembled a new band named Tiaga, integrated by former members of To/Die/For. However, in 2004, Jarno Perätalo and the band Tiaga took the name To/Die/For for themselves, releasing the album IV in 2005.

  To/Die/For is currently in the studio recording their fifth album, due for release in October 2006.

  To/Die/For is currently without a label and searching for one.
