Release: Esther Rose - Safe Ro Run

New West debuut Esther Rose met "Chet Baker" van haar aankomende "Safe To Run" New West Records / V2 BeNeLux April 21 / 2023 Esther Rose - Safe Ro Run New West Records / V2 BeNeLux 21 April 2023 Esther Rose, haar laatste twee albums haalde menige keren mijn cd-speler en bekoorde mijn hoorbaar genot.

Ik was verrast dat Esther Rose met een nieuw album aankomt en dat bij New West Records. Esther is goed bevriend met de muziekscene uit New Orleans waar zij lange tijd vertoefde. We konden haar zien in Videoclips van Sam Doores, Hurray For The Riff Raff, en The Deslondes. Zij is ook goed bevriend met Pokey LaFarge en het is de ex-vrouw van Luke Winslow-King. Vandaag mogen we de eerste single “Chet Baker” begroeten van haar New West album debuut “Safe To Run” wat verschijnt op 21 April 2023!

 

After spending her formative years in Michigan, Rose relocated to New Orleans and got her start in music while awash in the unparalleled energy of the city’s scene. Over the course of her first three records, an infatuation with traditional country gradually evolved into a more distinctive style and increasingly personal material. Rose’s music traced her changes as she moved through stages, studios, and home addresses, and she eventually left New Orleans for Santa Fe, New Mexico where the two year writing process for Safe to Run unfolded. Making the transition to this new environment after spending the better part of a decade building a life somewhere else demanded looking around and taking stock.

 

Making the leap from the comfortable to the unknown defines every aspect of the album. All the heaviness, sweetness, levity, and self-discovery that had led up to that point began funneling into new songs that moved slower in order to dig deeper. Rose says, “My challenge every time I picked up the pen was: not another heartbreak song, look around you. Writing from depths never explored and feeling sometimes like I was losing my mind, a softness unfurled. I’ve moved out of a chaot
