Charlie Roe grew up collaborating with other singer and artists. In September 2013, Charlie Roe released her first original EP entitled
‘Pomegrenades Attack’ as a result of a long studio collaboration with Giuseppe
Pugliese of the Mammut Project, presenting five original songs. Meanwhile, Charlie Roe

creating and performing new pieces of music and reaching an expanding audience.

3i, Radio Fiume Ticino and Radio Swiss Pop). In addition, ‘Ukulele Song’ has been
chosen as the soundtrack for television advertisements, currently on air.
In 2015 the band releases the EP "Paper Spring" and the single "Like A Kid". The Band also participates to the finals of Swiss My Coke Music Soundcheck Contest, reaching the third place.
