#50 | CAROLINE ROSE | Superstar
New West | Bandcamp

According to Sarah Paolantonio: “Performing the majority of the album herself—synthesizers, the Rhodes, flute, harp, ukulele, percussion, keys, and the usual suspects bass and guitar—the hooks dig deeper than they did on Loner. Rose produced the record too. Her voice shines, reaching highs and lows with and without production. She’s totally in control….Superstar is full-contact pop music: percussive, bouncing, and passionate. It’s designed to loosen you up. If Rose was ever holding on, she let go long ago. And it’s time for you to, too.”
