LILY ROSE DELIVERS POWERFUL TITLE TRACK “STRONGER THAN I AM”

Big Loud Records / Back Blocks Music and Republic Records breakthrough artist Lily Rose continues to deliver new music to fans as she drops the title track from her forthcoming project, “Stronger Than I Am” available everywhere today. With the “vocal presence and writing talents that make her poised to take her career to the next level,” (CMT) Rose will release her introductory project STRONGER THAN I AM, due Oct. 1.

Marking the fifth song Rose has released to fans from the highly anticipated project, “Stronger Than I Am” drops today alongside a performance-driven lyric video featuring Rose and mysteriously ending with “to be continued.” Foreshadowing more to come in the visual storyline, Rose keeps fans wanting more as she gears up for the full project.

 

 

“When it comes to ‘Stronger Than I Am,’ I’ve honestly never been more excited for a song,” shares Rose. “When I first heard it, I knew it was a story I would be able to passionately tell and create a moment with fans. It includes everything a great Country song needs: a little bit of sadness, a little bit of drinking, and an incredible hook.”


Written by Griffen Palmer and Geoff Warburton (Shawn Mendes, Demi Lovato), “Stronger Than I Am” is about the struggle of trying to stay strong through heartbreak, admitting sometimes the heartache wins out. Rose walks the listener through the steps she has tried taking in order to move on singing, “I’ve tried taking our pictures off the wall / I’ve tried working from dusk until dawn / I’ve tried all of the friends I can call / Oh but none of it’s helping at all / Something’s that stronger than I am,” Rose delivers in the raspy, soulful title track. The forthcoming project will include two unreleased tracks, accompanied by previous releases “Villain,” “Overnight Sensation,” “Remind Me of You,” “Know My Way Around” and “I Don’t Smoke.” 

Recently featured as part of CMT’s new digital series Viral to Verified, the “rising star” (Billboard) opened up to fans about her whirlwind path to success, from being down to her last dollar to striking a chord with millions of fans worldwide, seemingly becoming “an overnight sensation, 13 years in the making.” Racking up over 78M streams since her Dec. 2020 debut, Rose notched her first #1 one on Sirius XM’s The Highway Top 30 Countdown and has received critical acclaim from BillboardRolling StoneCMTMusicRow and SPIN. Continuing to pick up steam in 2021, Rose will release her introductory project on Oct. 1 before she joins Chris Lane’s Fill Them Boots Tour, kicking off next month on Oct. 28 in Memphis.

ABOUT LILY ROSE:             
Touting an identifiable sound described as contemporary, vulnerable and raw, Lily Rose is breaking new ground in the Nashville music scene with her ear-catching artistry that’s been tapped as “a promising new talent” by Billboard. Rose grew up in Atlanta as a self-taught drummer and guitarist but it wasn't until high school that she discovered her voice. As an athlete and distinguished singer, Rose had to decide which avenue to pursue. Bar sets and cover shows in her college town of Athens, GA led to headlining and sold out shows across Athens, Atlanta, Nashville and NYC, prompting her to make the move to Nashville in 2017. Her musical influences range from Rascal Flatts, Keith Urban and Bruce Springsteen to Katy Perry reflecting her innate ability to adopt a "futuristic" 21st century country sound. She currently resides in Nashville where she continues to write and record new music with a focus on melody and hook driven songwriting style, which has proven to resonate among country, pop and rock alike.

After blazing onto the Country scene with her Dec. 2020 release of “Villain,” Rose quickly grabbed the attention of Big Loud Records / Back Blocks Music and Republic Records and signed a joint-venture record deal in Jan. 2021. In the months following, Rose released four more songs, which earned her critical acclaim from Rolling StoneBillboardPeopleMusicRow, and CMT with more than 72M global artist streams to date. On Oct. 1, Rose is set to release a seven-song new project, STRONGER THAN I AM, as she continues to introduce herself to new fans through her “confident ease blending musical styles” (Rolling Stone) and “dusky, soulful voice” (CMT). Rose will also join Chris Lane’s Fill Them Boots Tour throughout Fall 2021 and early 2022.
