EILEEN CAREY ARTIST BIO
The
award-winning California-based singer/songwriter’s fourth and latest
album LET IT GO features songs which follow through on the theme on
letting go of those ties that bind us to the past and perhaps no song is
more evident than the title track, “Let It Go,” a thumping up-tempo
country pop tune about forgetting the small things or events from our
past that lead to insecurities and indecisions of life.

about LET IT GO suggests an artist who has lived enough life to offer
nuggets of wisdom and advice to anyone willing to listen.
One
of the hardest thing for human beings to learn is how and when to let
things go. So when an artist like Eileen Carey comes along with a
powerful message about doing just that, it’s a welcomed sight.
The
award-winning California-based singer/songwriter’s fourth and latest
album LET IT GO features songs which follow through on the theme on
letting go of those ties that bind us to the past and perhaps no song is
more evident than the title track, “Let It Go,” a thumping up-tempo
country pop tune about forgetting the small things or events from our
past that lead to insecurities and indecisions of life.
“I
Always try to give people different options as a way to look at
things,” Eileen says. “Because, unfortunately, this world’s been up and
down and if I can get them to think about things that maybe they haven’t
before, then maybe they can “Let It Go” and get to a better place in
their life.”
The
remainder of LET IT GO, which was tracked in Nashville and produced by
Travis Allen Childress, follows this concept with the strong opener
“Bring On The Big,” a radio-ready anthem about looking forward to what
life has to give us while “Bottle Your Crazy Up” smolders as it tells a
story of a woman who moves back into the dating pool and finds Carey
telling her friend to stop short of telling her life story. It’s the
wisdom that comes along with a been-there, done-that mentality that only
comes through life experience.
Along
with the strong originals are a handful of covers, including a cover of
The Motels 1982 hit “Only The Lonely,” The Katrina and the Waves 1985
hit “Walking On Sunshine,” and a cover of The Pretenders’ “Don’t Get Me
Wrong” from 1986. Each song showcases a different side to the theme
of LET IT GO and add a different layer of personality to the album.
“Only The Lonely” comes at us with a retro-cool feel, “Walking On
Sunshine” has that effervescent sheen of happiness that just makes you
smile while “Don’t Get Me Wrong” is a smart modernized Pop/Country take
on one of the 1980s most Iconic songs.

Born
and raised in Ohio but having called California home for over two
decades, Eileen Carey’s career has grown from unknown to respected
artist in that time. She’s won two Los Angeles Music Awards (2009’s
Americana Album of the Year award for MOVE ON and 2010’s Producer’s
Choice Award for Dance Single Of The Year) and also an South Bay (L.A.)
Music Awards recipient. Eileen has been the artist Ambassador for the
beauty salon chain Supercuts and has been recently sharing the stage
with many of California’s premiere artists.
Carey
was surrounded by music while growing up in the outskirts of Cleveland,
Ohio and became an accomplished drummer by the Age of 13. After growing
up a musician throughout the region, Carey sensed the need to move on
to bigger and better things than her small Ohio town could possibly hold
for her so she set off for California in the late 1980s where she
eventually studied acting, film and theater. The studying paid off as
she has performed roles in films like Hoffa, Basic Instinct and the
original Batman film, along with advertising campaigns like Ray Charles’
national Pepsi commercial as one of his original “Uh-Huh Girls.”
With
a life as varied and interesting as Eileen Carey has lead, it’s no
wonder she’d be drawn to songs like “Let It Go,” the kind of songs that
remind so many people that life is good if you just choose to let it
happen.
“I
just try to give people a different way of thinking, a different
outlet,” Says Eileen Carey. And she certainly does that with her fourth
album of new music, LET IT GO.
Put That Tequila Down and “Bottle Your Crazy Up!”
Hold the ice, Eileen Carey has good advice in her latest single. It’s mixed for good ole’ country ‘Dance Halls Days’ and already has the music charts ablaze.
“This world’s a rollercoaster of up and downs; through my music I try to get people to a better place in their life through a new perspective."- Eileen Carey
(PASADENA, CALIFORNIA, USA) September 3rd, 2014 – Whoa girl, put that tequila down! ‘Let It Go’ or you might do something you’ll regret! Instead, “Bottle Your Crazy Up,” as the lyrics suggest, in the latest offering from country artist Eileen Carey’s album, Let It Go. The song “Bottle Your Crazy Up” goes down smooth – as it is mixed into three flavors. Two versions are blended for “Dance Hall Days.” A third, bottled for radio currently has the country charts ablaze!
“Bottle Your Crazy Up” is the second single to drop off of Let It Go, which is Carey’s fourth album released since her debut in 2002. Critics have hailed Let It Go
as her best work to date. The song follows the creative blueprint this
award-winning songwriter always rolls out when composing, “It is the story
in any song is key for me,” she explains. However, Carey is especially
excited about this single as she offers more insight, “This single
speaks of a woman telling another not to rebound after a breakup on her
first date. She advises her friend not to drink the tequila, to be on
her best behavior, save the crazy for later.”

The
original version of “Bottle Your Crazy Up,” is currently ascending the
country radio charts and has already moved into the Top 40 on the New Music Weekly Country
Main Charts. The other two versions include a dance and club mix, which
are slated for use in Eileen’s whirlwind radio and dance club tour
which has dates booked through Kentucky and Tennessee from September 22nd, 2014 through September 26th,
2014.“Bottle Your Crazy Up” was penned by Bart Almond and Amy Dalley
and produced by the talented Nashville/Los Angeles based Travis Allen
Childress of Nashville Tracks.
There’s
a reason Eileen Carey is one of California’s most popular country
songwriters and performers; she hooks her songs with message and melody.
“Bottle Your Crazy Up is fun-loving dance song with the boot-scooters
in mind. It’s lyrically-loaded, line-dancing lover’s lick. So, hold the
salt, lime and ice and before you take that drink… think! Put it down, Let it Go and “Bottle Your Crazy Up.” Save all that energy for the oak floors and Eileen’s dance hall tours!
