Blondshell Covers Samia’s “Charm You”

Blondshell has shared her cover of Samia’s “Charm You,” the first in a series of single releases dubbed “Honey Reimagined”

Blondshell has shared her cover of Samia’s “Charm You,” the first in a series of single releases dubbed “Honey Reimagined” featuring a variety of artists (including Maya Hawke, Hovvdy, Ruston Kelly + more TBA) reinterpreting songs from Honey, the beloved sophomore album from Samia released earlier this year via Grand Jury. This July, the singer/songwriter will be embarking on her first headline tour of North America this next month (with half of the dates already sold-out) and will be supporting Liz Phair in the fall.

Blondshell shares of her twinkling, power-pop interpretation: “I’ve been inspired by Samia for such a long time. She puts so much of herself into her songs, so much love for people and places. That was one of the things that stood out to me most about Honey – all of the friendship and joy that cut through darkness. I really felt that on ‘Charm You’ and I’m so happy to be part of her project.”

Samia shares: “I’ve always been vocal about community being important to me. I couldn’t do this without my friends. We reimagined The Baby in 2020 because we were all stuck at home during the pandemic but the idea felt so true to the ethos of this project that I wanted to try it again with Honey. It’s always exciting to give songs a new life, especially with such great musicians involved.”
