                                                               "Million Little Bandaids"

As the first and only full-time female member of the Zac Brown Band, Caroline Jones is known amongst fans, media, and fellow artists as one of the most talented singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists in the industry.  Her latest tune, “Million Little Bandaids”, is available everywhere now via Empire Nashville.

Originally intended to be included on her ‘Superpower’ EP which was released on May 19th, the tune will be featured on her highly anticipated third studio album, due out in the fall of 2023.  Focusing on having the courage to be true to yourself and to your feelings and emotions, the song is a self-professed moment of reflection for Caroline.

Written and co-produced by Jones, “Million Little Bandaids” serves as the first collaboration with ZBB since she became a member, and features the harmonies the band has been made famous for over the years. 

Musically and lyrically, this song represents the brilliance that we have come to expect from this talented woman.  Originally written with Zac in mind, the final product of the song came full circle when the band asked to be a part of the production.  After taking the first and second verses independently, Caroline’s and Zac’s vocals blend together flawlessly and beautifully in the tune’s latter half, adding to the conviction and emotion necessary given the tone and subject matter.

The ability to articulate and invoke feelings and emotions from the listener through the melody and lyrics independently is a gift unique and exclusive to the top tier of talent in the music industry, and Jones once again delivers with “Million Little Bandaids”.  The control, range, and confidence behind her vocal delivery is matched only by her musical vision and instrumental talent.

“Let it hurt

Let it bleed

Let it be the fuel you need

To tell the truth

I know it’s hard

But it’s harder to cover up your heart

With one million little bandaids”

‘Superpower’ is Caroline’s third EP, which features “Lawless”, “Keep It Safe” with Alyssa Bonagura, and “By Way Of Sorrow” featuring Vince Gill, as well as the title track.  With every release, this incredibly talented songstress impresses us with her musical creativity, maturity, and craftmanship.  She is touring as part of Zac Brown Band on their nationwide on their “From The Fire Tour’ now through November while also intertwining headlining gigs and festival dates throughout the summer and fall.
