Feb 20, 2013While it manifests in a way that’s less playful than on her debut, it’s replaced by a gravitas that befits a sophomore record.

Feb 20, 2013Mainly, though, if Caitlin Rose is the future of Nashville and American country music, then it would seem that its future is in safe, appealing and mellifluous hands.

Feb 22, 2013Those who were endeared by Rose’s debut may be surprised, hopefully pleasantly, by the change in tone and attitude shown on The Stand-In. Nevertheless, it is a delightful record.
