CAYLEE HAMMACK PLOTS SOPHOMORE STUDIO ALBUM BED OF ROSES - OUT MARCH 7
Welcoming Listeners Through The Garden’s Gate Is Title Track “Bed Of Roses” –
Out Now
Nashville, TN - January 10, 2025 - Showing off her masterful technique
for cultivating lyrical vulnerability, Capitol Records Nashville’s Caylee
Hammack is set to release her sophomore album BED OF ROSES, bearing
the fruits of life, love and loss, available to pre-save HERE.
The 13 fresh tracks trace
the universal story of a 20-something’s coming of age with a mix of gypsy soul,
70’s twang, and heel stomping red-dirt rock – “we all have different
experiences, but we also have similar heartbreaks,” she says – it’s
filled with raw emotions and riveting energy, as the rising star learns to
plant not just for a short pop of beauty, but aims to cultivate the nutrient
dense, potent ground of experiences she continues to pull from with every song
she releases.
“Your bed of roses is the bed you make – you get to decide how you spend
your time and how you plant your garden,” Hammack says. “Good love is flowers
that come back every year. Bad love, it’s just the thorn. Sometimes you got to
till shit up. You’ve got to work through things and it’s not going to be fun.
And then one day, your friends come over and you sit as a family on the back
porch in the garden. And when they compliment the roses near the gate or the
cherry tomatoes speckled about in the pasta, you get the pleasure of realizing,
‘I grew that, I put love, time, and belief into something and it paid
off.’”
Sharing producer credits with studio savants Dann Huff and John Osborne
of Brothers Osborne, a bouquet of experimental yet-somehow-timeless sounds
emerged, centered in modern country. With live instruments, rich organic
textures and a throbbing pulse, they matched the chaotic harmony of nature to
Hammack’s otherworldly vocal, washed by waves of tremolo and reverb.
Inspired by a fleeting romance that never took root, title track “Bed
of Roses,” written by Hammack, Jeff Hyde and Benjy Davis, marks the
central point of her whole sophomore project. A bright anthem with a swampy
strut and electrifying vocal, with a theme of embracing the inner peace no
part-time partner can give, Hammack sees it as the garden gate opening up to
welcome listeners in, available to stream HERE (preferred music platform).
The video companion to the new track is available to watch below:
The fiery songstress first set the scene for her next sonic chapter
releasing “The Hill” (released 14 June
2024), and her scored woman ballad “Breaking Dishes” (released 30
Aug 2024) a “personality-packed bopper” that further displays Hammack as
“busting with talent and has long deserved major stardom” (Music Row).

About Caylee Hammack:
With her sophomore studio album Bed of Roses, available March 7th, Capitol
Records Nashville artist Caylee Hammack keeps her musical roots intertwined
with the country greats – with new branches reaching off to the outer edges of
psychedelic Americana while fortifying her Country backbone.
An Ellaville,
Georgia native with a self-described green thumb and stop-you-in-your-tracks
vocals crossing the warbling buzz of hummingbird wings with the sting of a
thorn, Hammack landed in Nashville at 19, turning heads with her unique mix of
influences ranging from David Bowie and Kate Bush to Dolly Parton and Tom
Waits.
Releasing a standout 2020 album debut IF IT WASN’T FOR YOU,
she went on to share stadium stages with Luke Bryan and Brothers Osborne, stun
tiny listening rooms into rapt silence, and captivate the Grand Ole Opry. All
told, she has so far racked up 235.8 million career global streams to date, won
an ACM Award for Musical Event of the Year (“Fooled Around And Fell In Love”
with Miranda Lambert), and picked up Artist to Watch accolades from The
Bobby Bones Show, Rolling Stone among other honors. But
Bed of Roses tracks five years of patient growth. Featuring 13 fresh cut
blooms, the rising star learned to tend her “garden of life” not just for a
short pop of beauty, but for a long lasting, healthy environment. “As a little
girl who always just wanted a man to bring her flowers – I decided I’d be
better off if I just learned how to grow my own,” she says. For more
