The track works seamlessly with the video to create a nostalgic and transformative viewing experience that will linger in your memory

An icon of modern pop music who was propelled into the limelight back in 2022 with her debut single ‘A Thousand Miles’, Vanessa Carlton has since embraced a more independent path, opting to create on her own terms with the kind of autonomy that a traditional record deal cant offer, and it has led to immersive and heartening releases since such as her powerful new single and video ‘Great House’.

The track explores the memories and moments that shape us, the places that we grew up and the people we shared them with, lost in time but archived in a way that feels like a capsule of those memories. The video and track work together to evoke that kind of nostalgia and the emotions that it brings, giving an enduring sense of permanence to bygone eras that feels profound and striking. The gorgeous piano-led track does a great job of bringing them to life in triumphant fashion, but it is the way that it combines with the video that really allows you to lose your sense of place and time and get lost in the Britton, South Dakota of old.
