misformusic.comIndigo Charles (a.k.a Charlie) is a very smiley, reserved private soul. She has been causing a buzz since she started working with
Solange Knowles as her Personal Assistant. She is a busy bee. Always on the run and not getting enough sleep. This 19year old has been doing this since she was 9years old. Her mother had her when she was 19years of age and that's never held her back from raising her daughter as a single parent. Her father passed on when she was only 3years old. Her mother was a Vice President of Publicity for Mathew Knowles' Music World Entertainment, which is how she met Solange. Indigo always flew everywhere with her mom to photo shoots,
MTV Avril Lavigne tour (backstage), The Red Carpet, Grammy's, AMA's, and even helping out with the VIP passes. Her passion for Music & Fashion took off right there.
Indi.lange - She started off babysitting for Solange and then it blew into a proper assistant position. They fly around the country, checking into hotels, then running to gigs. With Solange's DJing career taking off at a rapid pace, both their schedules are getting busier. She says her favorite style is mix and matching bold prints and patterns
Indigo Fashion - She is now a student at the
FIDM (Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandise) in Los Angeles. She interns at Fashion shows and hopes to one day become a Trend Forecaster. She is currently juggling school, work and a music career, which she says isn't easy but she loves.
Indigo Music - Her passion for Music began when she was a little girl with her parents listening to the likes of
Miles Davis (whose track she was named after, '
Mood Indigo'). She classifies her music as Indie/Alternative and says that her lyrics are inspired by her life experiences. She is currently working on her EP but has a single out titled '
Never Change' which she recorded right before she turned 19 inspired by her previous heartbreaks. She did a remix of Never Change with
Khleo Thomas titled '
I'll Never Change'. She says her dream would be to work with
Eminem and
Courtney LoveOn life:
"
Juicy red cherries on top of an already yummy life" is how she describes her latest endeavors. In 5years she sees herself healthy and happy doing whats he loves. Touring the world sharing her music.
'
Be beautiful. Be Pure. Be Fly' is her mantra on life. Her and her mother have these words tattooed on them.
Here's to a wonderful woman and a dream chaser.
