Caitlin Rose CD Release + Andrew Combs

More Info/Buy Tickets

Caitlin Rose popped up on the radar of music critics internationally with the release of her widely praised debut full-length album, Own Side Now. Drawing inspiration from female greats such as Linda Ronstadt, Patsy Cline and Stevie Nicks, Own Side Now is sheer perfection, firmly placing Nashville native Rose in the same league as these legendary artists.

Although steeped in the country tradition, Caitlin's music is not constrained by that heritage. Her confessional style and wry observations place her very much in the 21st Century, but it is her heart wrenching honesty, lyrical prowess and dexterous lyrical delivery that sets her apart from her peers. Nothing demonstrates this better than one of the albums many highlights, a track titled "For the Rabbits"; an epic saccharine-free, strings soaked (arranged by Jordan Lehning) ballad depicting a fractured relationship where she laments "Why is your love like rubber, he said / Or gum stuck under my shoe? / Leaving it there to avoid the risk of / Making a mess out of you." Even more remarkable is that this was written when Caitlin was only sixteen years of age.

Own Side Now makes it clear that Caitlin Rose's diverse talent is the real thing -- with every song, she seems to be singlehandedly breathing new life into a long tradition of American music. Her modern take on universal themes such as love and relationships provide the listener with a unique insight into a world where she seems wise beyond her years. She reveals her vulnerability with a voice that's so powerful yet gentle that listeners will be charmed and rewarded more with each listen.
