Description
You go out to start your day on the sunny beach. The waves are subtle, perfect for a dip and a calm swim. But it won’t continue this way. As the day grows old, the water turns into a beautiful beast. It pushes and pulls. It dances the most intricate dance of the day, and you can no longer keep up. It is time for her solo dance. This is the feeling Caly sings about in “Tread Lightly”
After going on a trip to a coastal town, she felt like she created a relationship with the ocean. It held her in its arms, and she surrendered herself to the flow of the water. Which she realized, is how she must live her life. Go with the flow, surrender to the chaos, and love every moment of the journey.
Just like the water changes, the sounds on this song are nothing like Caly has ever done before. There is a feeling of vulnerability but also power and strength with live guitars and drums. Vocally, she transcends a genre. With light airy vocals, all the way to emotional belts. Caly let it all flow out on this stripped down song.
Fans of Brandi Carlile, Big Thief, and the indie rock genre will fall in love with the journey this song takes you on.
