She is also known as the former guitarist and backing vocalist in the rock band Ash. Currently she's performing under the alias Sylver Tongue.
Before her days in Ash, Hatherley was playing in the obscure punk rock band, Nightnurse, from the age of 16. They received moderate success, and Ash frontman Tim Wheeler was present at one of their gigs. She was later recruited as the fourth and final member. Her first album with the group was 1998s Nu Clear Sounds where she provided lead guitar for all tracks and also wrote the song WildSurf which appears on the album.
Apart from this, Hatherley mainly contributed to Ash with soulful guitar and some backing vocals, co-writing the odd song with Wheeler. The title track from Hatherley's first solo album, Grey Will Fade had previously been featured as a B-side to one of Ash's singles. The rest of the band had liked the song, yet felt it wasn't consistent with Ash's sound, and supported Hatherley when she decided to record her own album. This debut album, relased in 2004, has more than proved her songwriting ability. The three singles, Bastardo, Kim Wilde and Summer all received high praise from critics, as well as the album itself.
The videos to the tracks Bastardo and Summer were directed by her ex-boyfriend, Edgar Wright, who is best known as the director of the film "Shaun Of The Dead", which incidentally featured two tracks from Ash's fourth album proper Meltdown, the title track and Orpheus.
On January 20th 2006, she announced her departure from Ash, to pursue her solo career further.
Her first material since her departure from Ash came in the form of the Behave EP which featured tracks from her second album and was released on December 18 2006 on two formats - 7" vinyl and digital download. The EP featured the title track Behave as well as other tracks from her second album including Cousteau and Mr Ed.
Her second album, The Deep Blue, was released in March 2007 on her own label Little Sister Records which was founded by Charlotte together with her manager Ann-Marie Shields. Between this and the release of her 2009 third solo effort, New Worlds, she played with Bat for Lashes as a touring guitarist, and has played bass with Client since December 2007.

Charlotte Hatherley Lyrics
His room
Is cold and bright
The surfaces are clear
Hard
Tight
And very very white
A silver stripe
A very modern man
In white
White
White
Swim into the abyss and the infinite
You're the only decoration that I need
In whiteness we can lead our modern life
Oh I love it when you take me in the white
My hair
Is red and glows
Against the walls
Your eyes
Are blue bright
And shine into the light
The world is broke
There's only you and I
In white
White
White
Swim into the abyss and the infinite
You're the only decoration that I need
In whiteness we can lead our modern life
Oh I love it when you take me in the white
My hair
Is red and glows
Against the walls
Your eyes
Are blue and bright
And shine into the light
The world is broke
There's only you and I
In white
White
White
Swim into the abyss and the infinite
You're the only decoration that I need
In whiteness we can lead our modern life
Oh I love it when you take me in the white

I think this was a great record that didn't get the love and attention it deserved when it first came out. I have a 45 vinyl 7" single in white and it just floats out at you. Charlotte always was very good at doing angelic gorgeous harmonies, that's part of what made Ash so great while she was in the band.

The work that must have gone into this video, learning the lyrics backwards, moving in such a way that it looks natural when reversed. wow.
MewTheniRun

This is much better than the Sylver Tongue stuff she's doing now...
englemint
Unique, fresh, melodically wonderful. Good for her. This is a nice slice of heaven compared to the usual crap out there.
