Biography

Listen Up to Caitlin Rose!
Caitlin Rose is back with a new studio album, the follow up to her critically acclaimed debut, Own Side Now. The album introduces a newfound confidence in Rose, the poise of an experienced songwriter and the fierce gumption that goes all the way down to her bluely soul. This sense of self-assurance is woven throughout twelve carefully crafted songs with the timeless sound and witty approach to lyricism that has become her signature.

Incorporating classic influences from her Nashville roots with a modern pop twist, Caitlin?s vocals soar over lyrics that seem to possess the wisdom of an old soul. Crafted with Nashville producers Jordan Lehning and Skylar Wilson (Justin Townes Earle), featuring two songs co-written with Gary Louris (The Jayhawks), The Stand-In (ATO) came together and took form as a team effort, strengthened by a longtime friendship with band mates Jeremy Fetzer and Spencer Cullum. Inspired by classic country musicians, misunderstandings, break ups, mystical landmarks and the constantly evolving landscape of the Nashville music scene, The Stand-In is an ambitious record, a testament to Rose?s bold approach and strength as a songwriter. With a trademark punch that the New York Times once likened to a young “Patsy Cline learning to howl”, Rose?s fiery disposition shines through on rollicking tracks like “No One To Call” and “Waitin?,” songs that possess a huge sound and a whole lot of character. Never the type to be one-dimensional, Rose wears her heart on her sleeve on candid serenades like “I Was Cruel” and sentimental ballads like “Pink Champagne” or “When I?m Gone.” And in true form, Rose includes a brilliant cover on The Stand-In, this time of The Felice Brothers? single, “Dallas.”
