Charlotte and Marshall return to Nashville, where Charlotte’s name is quickly gaining<br/> traction as an emerging act. The Carmelina boardrooms echo with differing opinions on<br/> the best way forward. Elliot digs in when they tell him he’s in over his head, and claims<br/> he can handle every aspect of her career, but Marshall and Charlotte take meetings with <br/> other publishing companies and major label A&R’s anyway. One of the songs Charlotte<br/> wrote at the camp gets cut by a big artist who’s rough around the edges, but the single<br/> comes out of the gate hot. Before they meet him in the studio, Marshall warns Charlotte<br/> about his reputation around women, but Charlotte insists she can handle herself. The<br/> session is rough, he’s creepy and disrespectful, but Charlotte sees it through. With<br/> attention growing and paperwork looming, Charlotte seeks advice from Emily and<br/> Miranda on record deals, touring, and management, and Miranda invites her to come to<br/> one of her Texas tour dates. We see Charlotte facing the big question of season two: do<br/> I want to be a songwriter or an artist?
