Approved: Caitlin Rose
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 1 July 2010
Having been born and raised in Nashville, it’s hardly surprising 22-year old singer-songwriter Caitlin Rose’s music is country through and through. Reminiscent of the greats, Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline, Caitlin belts out songs about heartbreak, teenage pregnancy and the like with her heartfelt country twang.
I spent a lot of yesterday watching the videos on her YouTube channel, and by the end of the afternoon I had a real urge to hang out with Rose, preferably at a barn dance or hoe-down, where we could sway along in a cool (ie uncool) way to her songs ‘Learnin’ To Ride’ and ‘For The Rabbits’, both from her debut album ‘Own Side Now’.
That debut isn’t out until the beginning of August, although she has just re-released her ‘Dead Flowers EP’, which, as the title suggests, includes a marvellous cover of The Rolling Stones’ song ‘Dead Flowers’. Meanwhile, go enjoy the vids for yourself.
