Caroline Says, has shared her latest “Dust,” a track off her forthcoming album The Lucky One, available October 12th via Western Vinyl (Strand of Oaks, Jonathan Rado). The song follows previous singles “Faded & Golden,” and “Roses.” “Dust” was by a road trip Sallee went on, saying “I drove to West Texas to see the Davis Mountains. I wanted to see the future and I wanted to see the past, but a dust storm prevented me from seeing anything at all.”

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, on which her gaze is fixed more clearly than ever on the evocative landscapes of our memories – hometown bars, road trips, and late-night swims – and how these memories continue to shape who we are today.

Throughout the writing process of The Lucky One, Caroline moved from Texas back to Alabama, and then to Brooklyn, with each new location informing her sense of past, present, and future. Like her previous two albums, Caroline wrote, performed, and recorded everything you hear on The Lucky One, a process that magnifies the insular clarity of her vision as she stitches together her casually sophisticated melodies and forlorn lyrics. A thread of self discovery and analysis is present throughout the album, as Caroline explores the yearning for sincerity in relationships and daily life, and how we can’t always retrace the paths in our memories, but those memories, however unreliable, continue to shape us.
