Lady Charles Captivates With "Oh Boy!" Soundtrack

Lady Charles has once again proven they’re a force to be reckoned with in the world of theatrical music.

Their latest release is "Oh Boy!", a soundtrack for the critically acclaimed play of the same name, shows everything that makes Lady Charles an artist worth watching.

Bold, theatrical, and an innate ability to create songs that tell a story.

From the opening notes of the title track “Oh Boy,” the listener is immediately transported into a vibrant world of high energy. The soundtrack perfectly mirrors the play’s themes of adolescence, rebellion, and identity, using a dynamic mix of retro disco, funk, and electro-pop to bring the narrative to life.

Each track feels like its own mini-story, with sweeping arrangements that complement the play’s exploration of growing up in a small town, struggling with self-discovery, and facing the pressures of society.

Standout tracks like “Child of the Night” show Lady Charles at their most infectious, with a relentless 70's groove that begs you to hit the dance floor.

“Cherry Chapstick” and “Hands” keep the energy high with funky rhythms and rich layers of sound, creating a listening experience that’s as theatrical as it is immersive.

One of the most striking things about Oh Boy! is how effortlessly Lady Charles mixes the album’s more playful, high-energy moments with its deeper, more emotional undertones.

While the play may deal with themes of youthful chaos and dreams colliding with reality, Lady Charles’s music elevates these moments into something larger than life.

This is where Lady Charles excels - taking a concept and pushing it to its most creative, daring limits.

The journey from fronting the glam-rock band Valois to becoming a solo, genre-defying artist is fully realized here. In Oh Boy!, Lady Charles continues to explore their non-binary identity and craft a distinct artistic voice that feels both deeply personal and relatable to a wider audience.
