Caroline Rose Shines on Late Night with Seth Meyers

Last night, Caroline Rose made her television debut with just under two weeks to go before the release of Superstar, her new album, out March 6th on New West. Rose brought her incredible energy, personality and dance moves to the stage of Late Night with Seth Meyers where she performed Superstar’s lead single “Feel the Way I Want,” a number that “finds the singer-songwriter leaning fully into the sound and image she’s spent the past four years sculpting” (Rolling Stone).  Onstage, Rose (vocals, guitar) was joined by Abbie Morin (keyboard), Michael Dondero (bass, keyboard), Riley Geare keyboard) and Willoughby Morse (drum), all adorned in primary colors. The performance previews her North American tour, which kicks off next week.
 

Superstar, the follow up to 2018’s LONER, is a bigger, badder, glitter-filled cinematic pop record. It’s an underdog story, and one not far off from Rose’s real life. After years of struggle to release what would ultimately become LONER, Rose found herself in the midst of a new widespread audience, one both intrigued and perplexed about how and where to place her. This feeling of otherness, combined with a developed set of studio skills and a challenge to “make something from nothing,” marked the beginning of Superstar —the story of a shamelessly odd hero, or rather anti-hero, on a quest to become a someone.
 
In anticipation of the upcoming album release, Rose has launched an Instagram filter that lets fans “Superstar themselves.” The real-time effect lets fans take photos and videos featuring the makeup and lighting effects from the album’s cover art, and post directly to Instagram stories. The filter is free via Instagram, available on all smartphones, and can be installed here.
