“Giddy Up”, the first single from the 2012 CD release entitled “Creole Diva of Southern Soul” has quickly become one of the most requested songs on southern soul / urban radio. This song not only makes you “feel good” but the instrumentation combined with the singer’s powerful voice (which has a clear tantalizing touch of soulful grit) keeps you on that “high”. Voted "Best New Female Vocalist" by highly regarded southern soul critics, upon the release of her 2004 EP (which included the southern soul hit “Can We Talk About It”), we first saw Charli' appearing as opening act for southern soul headliners such as Mel Waiters, blues great Bobby Blue Bland and R&B star Tank and recently gained more recognition by both southern soul and zydeco fans for her power packed part on the remix of the hit song “Ride It Like a Cowboy” by southern soul MVP Kenne’ Wayne. “Giddy Up” describes a scene at a southern trail ride and even if you’ve never heard of or been to one, this song takes you there, excites you and makes you definitely want to hear more from the Creole Diva of Southern Soul.
