Los Angeles, CA (August 21, 2026) - Rising singer-songwriter Devon Gabriella returns with “Charlie,” a deeply felt new single available now via BMG. Pairing Devon’s diaristic songwriting with an intimate, emotionally charged performance, the track offers another compelling glimpse into the larger body of work she is set to release later this year.

“ “Charlie” highlights just how complicated moving on from a past relationship can be, especially when your brain may accept a new reality faster than your body does,” says Devon Gabriella.

On “Charlie,” Devon once again demonstrates her ability to transform a highly personal experience into something immediately recognizable. Her clear-eyed writing leaves room for tenderness, uncertainty, and all the complicated emotions that can gather around a single name. The result feels at once private and universal, a hallmark of the thoughtful, emotionally honest songwriting that has quickly become her signature.

“Charlie” follows July’s “Miss Us,” which found Devon exploring one of heartbreak’s least-discussed emotions: losing your best friend when a relationship ends. Together, the two songs reveal an artist writing with increasing confidence and clarity, locating the overlooked emotions that linger in the aftermath of love and giving them language.

Earlier this year, Devon embarked on her first-ever headlining tour, performed at SXSW, and was named one of Austin Monthly’s “Artists Everyone Will Be Talking About at SXSW 2026.” She also released her single “Old Time’s Sake,” which landed on Spotify’s influential Teen Beats, Next Gen Singer-Songwriters, and Pop Sauce playlists.

Momentum has continued to build for Devon following a landmark 2025. Having been personally selected by GRAMMY Best New Artist nominee sombr, Devon joined the North American leg of his Late Nights & Young Romance Tour, performing in venues across the country, including several nights before crowds of more than 10,000 fans. The tour marked a defining inflection point in her career, introducing her intimate, diaristic songwriting to arena-scale audiences while highlighting her ability to transform deeply personal stories into captivating live performances.

She has also supported artists including Christian French and Sadie Jean, further sharpening her live presence, and sold out her debut headline performance at Los Angeles’ Moroccan Lounge in under a minute, an early testament to her rapidly growing and deeply engaged fanbase.

Originally from the Bay Area and now based in Los Angeles, Devon has steadily built her career through years of independent releases, relentless touring, and authentic fan connection. Since first releasing music in 2020, she has shared 13 singles, two EPs, and her 2024 debut album, From the Next Room, laying the foundation for one of pop’s most promising young careers.

Drawing inspiration from Taylor Swift’s confessional lyricism, Kacey Musgraves’ wit, Fleetwood Mac’s melodic sensibility, and the emotional immediacy of Gracie Abrams, Devon crafts modern pop songs rooted in vulnerability, nostalgia, and emotional clarity. Her 2025 EP, The Garden, marked a period of personal and creative growth, expanding her sonic palette while fostering an especially devoted fan community, many of whom attend shows wearing flower crowns inspired by the project’s themes of comfort, healing, and belonging.

With “Charlie,” Devon Gabriella continues to prove herself as a songwriter capable of finding universal truths within deeply personal experiences. As she looks ahead to releasing a larger body of work later this year, the new single offers another compelling glimpse into an artist confidently stepping into her next chapter.
