Standout favourite of Nashville’s Country- Rock scene Caitlin Rose has just released her latest single ‘Getting It Right‘ off her forthcoming album CAZIMI , out November 18th via names. ‘Getting It Right’ was co-written with Courtney Marie Andrews, who also sings harmonies on the track.
With a voice equal parts honeyed and world-weary, Rose sings self-aware songs of self-destruction and impulse control, bad habits in life and in romantic pursuits. She skips across genres, combining new wave influences with pop stylings and the melancholy song writing that made her such a staple of the Nashville scene.
Along with her latest track ‘Getting it Right‘ Caitlin and Courtney have shared their stunning vocals in this authentic, charmingly witty and confessional video:
Speaking of the track Caitlin says:
“Several years ago, I fell in love with Courtney’s first album. I had been doing co-writes for a while, but realized I needed to start focusing in on the writers and artists I really wanted to collaborate with…….. I snuck into her DM’s and proposed a write whenever she was in town. Luckily she was already in town and we spent an extremely hot afternoon on the patio talking astrology and music and walking away with what I always thought of as a bit of a banger.”
“It feels like an obvious anthem for the album with all the time that’s gone by and the hole I was in for a few years. All the disappointment of feeling like I couldn’t do a damn thing right….. It was really refreshing to talk and create something with someone on the brink of their own amazing journey. A little of my own cynicism dissolved that day, and even though it would take a few more years before I could actually embark on my own re-entry into the field, it’s definitely a song that helped push me in the right direction.”
‘Getting It Right’ follows the release of ‘Nobody’s Sweetheart‘ and ‘Black Obsidian‘.
When Caitlin Rose settled in at Nashville’s Sound Emporium Studios for a week of tracking in February 2020 with co-producer Jordan Lehning, she never expected the world to turn on its head just a month later. It turns out, sitting with these songs a little longer is exactly what she needed.
Taking its title from the astrological term for when a planet is in such close proximity to the sun that it’s considered to be in the heart of it, CAZIMI chronicles “the slow motion unraveling of somebody’s life” in the aftermath.
Not as much a return to form as it is a reintroduction to Caitlin Rose, CAZIMI follows 2021’s deluxe 10-year anniversary edition of her beloved debut Own Side Now. The album saw Caitlin declared as “the best thing to come out of anywhere for a very long time” by The Independent.
