The track showcases a whole new side to the artist’s songwriting.
Going from the frontwoman of acclaimed pop punk band Hey Monday to becoming a GRAMMY-nominated, Platinum-certified singer-songwriter, Cassadee Pope‘s artistic journey has been anything other than ordinary, and she has a massive catalogue of varied and exciting tracks that she has amassed along the way.
The latest of these releases is her new single ‘Almost There’, a powerful and intimate track about feeling comfortable with your partner and having the thrill of being able to explore new things and delve into exciting new experiences. There is an emphatic fearlessness to the sound that feels explosive and rousing throughout, with the artist channelling the most brash and fierce side of her sound to accompany a previously unseen boldness and openness in her writing, exploring her desires in a way that feels all the more powerful thanks to the emotional weight and heaviness of the sound. ‘Almost There’ is a statement of defiance from Cassadee Pope, and hopefully one that will urge others to feel more comfortable in their skin and doing what they please without judgment.
Speaking on the track, Cassadee shares, “I think a lot of us are taught from an early age that indulging our desires is shameful and not ladylike. It was only when I started to shed that shame and embrace my sensual nature that I began feeling like myself. For this song, I wanted to let people see a side of me they haven’t seen before and validate them in their own desires.”
