Caroline Says announces first album in six years, The Lucky One
Caroline Says, the moniker of Caroline Sallee, has announced her forthcoming album The Lucky One, alongside the release of lead single, "Faded & Golden".
"Faded and Golden" reflects on the bittersweet nature of reunions with old friends, where the idealised memories of youth can clash with the realities of the present.
On the track, Caroline explains: “Relationships are, first and foremost, ideas. That’s what allows relationships to persist even when we’re apart. We may yearn for an old friend or lover, especially one from our teenage years and our hometown. But there is a bittersweetness to any reunion. They may shatter the memory we’ve made of them
Having explored the intricate nature of regret and the strangely persistent impact of fragments of our pasts on her 2017 debut album, 50 Million Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong and her 2018 sophomore album, No Fool Like An Old Fool, Caroline revisits these ghosts of her past on The Lucky One.
