ELIO returns with new cut "Typecast"

ELIO is back with new single "Typecast", which she says "really sets the tone for my new era".

After collaborating with the likes of Teddy Failure and Micah Jasper, ELIO has kicked off a new era with fresh single "Typecast".

ELIO, real name Charlotte Grace Victoria, says of the single, ""Typecast" really sets the tone for my new era. It’s about being put in a category of what you are, and what you can do. I feel like artists get put in a box so much, of how much they’re allowed to change and how much they should stay the same. I do it so much as a fan of other artists, but know how limiting it can feel as an artist myself. While writing the new music I just wanted to create stuff that felt right, no matter how different it was from my previous releases, but I found myself being reluctant because of how people view me as an artist, and how people have connected to the type of songs I have out. "Typecast" was me having to go in a completely different direction in order to move on and grow as an artist."

Back in May ELIO released her ELIO and Friends: The Remixes EP featuring Charli XCX, No Rome, Chase Atlantic, BLACKSTARKIDS and more.

ELIO's "Typecast" single is out now.
