Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Cailin Russo has announced the title and release date of her forthcoming EP The Drama, due out February 14, 2020
‘The Drama’ EP was executively produced by Chris Coady (Beach House, Yeah Yeah Yeahs), with additional production from The Invisible Men (Charli XCX, ZAYN) and Michael Percy and features Nick Zinner from the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s on guitar.
The EP features two previously released tracks, including lead single, “DECLARATION,” a hazy 80’s guitar-drenched number, paired with an electrifying video which originally premiered on Billboard. In talking about the song, Cailin explains that it’s “a fierce proclamation of a mistake from which I couldn’t seem to escape. The song comes from that feeling where you almost reach the bottom and you have nothing to do but accept it, own it and let it run its course.” The song, which was originally conceived in the parking lot of a London hotel as a poem on a notepad, serves as an introduction to her singular style. A gentle coo cruises over a thudding beat between echoes of guitar as she candidly admits, “This is the declaration of a fuck up, a product of how I was raised, and I can’t expect a single teardrop. Whoa, I am ashamed.”
To celebrate the release of The Drama EP, Cailin has announced a special EP release show at Los Angeles’ Moroccan Lounge on Valentine’s Day, February 14th, 2020. For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit HERE.
In other news, Cailin has been announced as one of the faces of the Armani Exchange Spring Summer 2020 campaign, which also features Dylan Jagger Lee, Will Peltz, pop duo, Bloom Twins and Ouyang Nana. The campaign was shot in LA by photographer Simon Eeles.
