Clearly a woman who knows what she wants to say and how to say it, Caroline Rose lets it all fly on her new oddball pop record, Loner.

Loner is as every bit inviting as it is delightfully sharp-tongued and quick-witted. It’s modern pop production pairs excellently with Rose’s 90’s Girl Power energy. It’s satirical, yet sincere.

Caroline Rose pulls no punches as she lets out underhanded social commentary that never once feels preachy or disingenuous. She is not making fun anyone in particular, but more so pointing out simple ironies. Sometimes it’s hard to tell when Rose is being serious and when she is at peak sarcasm. Either way, it’s purposeful and funny.
