Charlotte Gordon Cumming (born in Scotland, 2 February 1958) is a contemporary singer-songwriter and music producer, daughter of a Scottish clan chief. She wrote the Sugababes hit "Soul Sound", nominated for MTV Best European Single Award 2001. In 2005, the song was covered by Indonesian singer Joy Tobing on her album Rise and was recorded by Cumming on her album Mindwalking.

Cumming is influenced by artists such as Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel and Sinéad O'Connor, though she has developed her own modern blend of Celtic melodies and African rhythms.

She is married to the novelist Nicholas Evans, author of The Horse Whisperer.^[1]

In September 2008 Cumming, her husband, her brother and her sister-in-law had to undergo kidney dialysis after consuming Cortinarius speciosissimus mushrooms on her brother's estate in Scotland.^[1][2]
