Caroline Romano Shares New Single, “Pretty Boys”

Nashville-based alt-pop singer and songwriter Caroline Romano reveals her new single, “Pretty Boys,” out on all streaming platforms today. In line with her recent hits like “Body Bag,” “Doesn’t Matter,” and “Used By You,” “Pretty Boys” cements Caroline Romano’s status as a rising star in the alt-pop scene.



Born from the raw emotions of heartbreak, “Pretty Boys” is both explosive and tender, capturing the duality of love and loss. The track begins with a stripped-back guitar and Caroline’s evocative vocals, building an intimate atmosphere before erupting into a powerful, urgent anthem that mirrors the intensity of heartbreak. As the chorus hits, the song transforms into a dizzying, energetic singalong, capturing the whirlwind of emotions that come with heartache.

“‘Pretty Boys’ is my honest recount of heartbreak,” Caroline shares. “It’s like reading straight from my diary—a dramatic story with a terribly disappointing ending. The song is a cautionary tale about the blurry line between friendship and something more. Just because you’ve kissed him doesn’t mean you should do it again, and just because he looks at you that way doesn’t mean you’re the only one. ‘Pretty Boys’ feels like a high school crush at 22, with all the highs, lows, and semi-committal main characters. It’s a very specific experience, but one that’s universally relatable.”

At just 23-years-old, Nashville-based Caroline Romano has established herself as a versatile artist, effortlessly transitioning between misty-eyed ballads and fiery alt-rock anthems. Since the release of her 2022 debut album, Oddities and Prodigies, and her subsequent 2023 EP, A Brief Epic, Caroline has continued to come into her own as an artist, revealing new layers of her artistry with each release. 

Caroline’s music is a masterful study of being a young woman in today’s world. Her songs are raw, untempered, and full of anguish, hedonism, and introspection. Over the past few years, Caroline has also become well-known for her high-energy live performances. Her climb up the live circuit has seen her perform at iconic Nashville venues like The Basement East and The End, and she recently completed her first US tour supporting Grayscale and Smallpools.
