'Australia Decides' 2022 entrant Charley has released a new indie pop single 'Dirty Dancing' in collaboration with singer songwriter Cody Jon!

The track was co-written by Cody (Cody Ettinghausen) and Charley (Claire Howell) and produced by Oscar Sharah.

Jointly promoting the release on their social media accounts, the pair said:

"We wrote this song together a year ago and it's been a favourite ever since...YEAH we are HAPPY IT'S finally coming out. I think you will like it a lot."

Back in February Charley competed at 'Eurovision - Australia Decides' on the Gold Coast with 'I Suck At Being Lonely', finishing in fourth place. You can read more about her here.

Sydneysider, Cody Jon, 19, describes himself as a bedroom pop artist and has been releasing music since 2019 with five singles to date. His March release 'Becky's Plan' received glowing reviews on Triple J Unearthed where his music is described as electronic/indie/pop.
