Latest Release
A narrative-driven single exploring the magnetic pull of powerful figures in entertainment — where admiration blurs into distortion. Classic folk storytelling meets indie rock energy.
Featured on Apple Music ZA — "New In Pop" & "New Music Daily"
The Artist
South African singer-songwriter produced by Daniel Baron (Beast, Radio Man, forthcoming EP). Music blends indie-pop, folk rock and singer-songwriter craft — raw emotion paired with powerful storytelling.
Discovered on Instagram by Daniel Baron, Carla’s work has been marked by authentic songwriting and a voice that resonates with vulnerability and hope. In 2025 she received a SAMRO Music Fund grant, supporting the recording of her forthcoming debut EP — a narrative of resilience, self-love and transformation.
