Song and official music video mark the start of new monthly releases, teasing upcoming project
Today, independent country, pop singer-songwriter Caroline Jones kicked off a series of new music releases, in which she will put out a new song on the last Friday of each month, with her song “What A View” and its accompanying music video. “What a View,” an acoustic guitar-heavy rock production with a singalong chorus celebrating the kind of love that lasts, was written by Jones and co-produced by Grammy and Academy Award winner Ric Wake (Mariah Carey, Trisha Yearwood). The Boot exclusively premiered the track and further explained, “”What a View” is about the emotional, and physical, journeys that come with each and every relationship, both romantic and not.” Link to download and stream “What a View” here.
Directed by projectblackboxx, the official music video plays into the song’s title, offering stunning scenic views of Colorado, as Caroline explores both on the ground and from the sky, courageously flying a plane herself.
“I’m so excited to be able share new music during this time. It allows me to stay connected with my creativity and my audience, whom I deeply miss playing for in person. That’s why I’ve decided to release a new song and/or video the last Friday of every month for this upcoming project,” Caroline said. “The first song, ‘What a View,’ is about the journey of relationships — romantic and otherwise. Navigating life’s ups and downs with the one(s) I love, during immense challenges and great joys, has made me a stronger, wiser and better person. Experience provides us with a wider lens, or a more beautiful ‘view.’ This song is especially meaningful when I think of my team, who has supported me, challenged me, mentored me and nurtured my creativity over the past few years. As an independent artist, this startup mentality/tribal spirit keeps me inspired and allows me to create very purely.”

Caroline has spent the past few months in quarantine channeling her creativity and connecting with fans in social distance-friendly ways. In March, she released her All of the Boys EP, which included four different mixes – country, dance, pop, coffee house – of current single “All of the Boys,” celebrating her love for music across genres. Caroline co-wrote the single with friend and mentor Zac Brown. Earlier this month, she teamed up with Billboard to perform as a part of their “Live At-Home” remote concert series and helped raise over $23,000 for Zac Brown’s Camp Southern Ground. This spring, Caroline joined the line-up for Global Citizen’s “Together At Home” remote concert series and was joined by surprise guest, music legend, and friend/mentor Jimmy Buffett for a special joint performance.
