From politics to religion, heartbreaking sadness to seemingly endless joy, Caroline Rose traverses a path paved by the likes of Townes Van Zandt, John Lee Hooker, and Joni Mitchell, to name a few.
The child of two artists from very different backgrounds, Rose claims that her family's interests have impacted her music more than anything. "I grew up in the North, but most of my family is from the South, mainly in South Carolina and Mississippi. It took me a while to realize how much that combination's shaped me," she says. "That and my family's sense of adventure. I definitely inherited that." As someone whose music is as multifaceted as her personality, Rose has a hard time describing herself in just a handful of words. "Well, part of me is a kind of wandering loner," she relays half jokingly. "I like living that way, I can be real awkward at times and enjoy being alone, but there's another side of me that has got a lot of say and wants to say it bold and loud." But if there’s one thing that best describes her, it’s that she doesn’t like staying in one place too long. Call it an adventurous spirit or endless curiosity, whatever it is that drives Caroline Rose, it is a force to be reckoned with and certainly does not go unnoticed on America Religious, set for release June of this year.
The long-awaited official debut album America Religious, co-produced with her partner of four years Jer Coons, is a gospel-meets-country-meets-blues-meets-alternative collection of toe-tapping, roadworthy stories and poetry set to music. Created at Coons’ Parkhill Studio in Burlington, Vermont, the duo are quite proud to say they’ve had complete control over the entire creative process. "I wrote and arranged all the songs, while Jer did all the engineering and nearly all the mixing. He's great at everything I'm not and vice-versa, so it works out incredibly well," says Rose. On top of producing, recording, and engineering the record themselves, the duo played nearly every instrument, including lap steel, cello, organ, mandolin, drums, and more. Undeniably, America Religious is a unique combination of elements that stands on its own within an increasingly generic industry.
