SKY EP (2017)
On her new five track EP SKY, Caroline Ferrante
emerges as a multi-faceted indie pop artist,
powerfully blending that edgy grit with raw emotion
and
vulnerability to emerge from a time of despair to
defiant and joyful hope.
One of the keys to Caroline creating a fresh,
distinctive sound on SKY is her exciting
collaboration with Austin Bello of the popular
pop/punk band Forever the Sickest Kids, who co-wrote
three songs and produced the project. Bello got in
touch with the singer after hearing a demo recording
she released called “Strand-ed”. Much to her
surprise, he fell in love immediately with a rough
recording of her intense, emotionally searing song
“Better Angels,” which finds her addressing all at
once dark family secrets, spiritual crises and her
troubled relationship with her dying sister.
“Austin showed me how I could speak my truth through
songwriting and still make it accessible. This blew
my mind. To realize I could be who I am, warts and
all, have my own sound, and know that a publisher
might be interested was crazy to me. My inner demons
and perfectionism took more of a back seat after
that. I was liberated to use my music as a way to
navigate through. Find beauty through darkness.
Austin helped me own my sound. That's where SKY was
born.”
