Laci Kaye Booth’s voice could buckle steel with its breathy heat. Her savagely honest lyrics would have made Amy Winehouse smirk with admiration. On September 18, she will be releasing Love Ain’t for the Faint of Heart, her first album for Lost Highway Records. The project was produced by Ben West (Stephen Wilson Jr., Ella Langley) and will be available on September 18.
What to expect from Laci Kaye Booth’s ‘Love Ain’t for the Faint of Heart’
Laci Kay Booth expressed, “I knew from the very beginning that this was going to be an album about love.” However, from the album’s title, the artwork, and the two songs that we’ve heard so far, it’s obviously not going to be all butterflies and roses. She’s more than hinting that Love Ain’t for the Faint of Heart will be an intensely authentic emotional ride, hitting highs, lows, and possibly going full scorched earth on the topic.
A month ago, Laci Kaye Booth and Spotify posted the intoxicating “Luck of the Draw.” According to her TikTok, the song is about the beauty of letting go of all the chaos and anger in life, seeking freedom from the need to blame someone or something for all that’s going wrong. The chord progression descends with a tender solemnity, masterfully slipping in a splash of hope with a subtle major chord. Booth’s ethereal phrasing shifts the focus away from the individual words, allowing her to deliver a transcendent melody that communicates almost purely through emotion. She performs this song on a level that few artists can imagine, let alone achieve.
The just-released “Ethereal Redneck Sh*t” isn’t a rowdy bonfire blaze. It’s an A24 approach to country music. Laci Kaye Booth shares an introspective moment with close friends. The track drifts along on a gentle groove while the lyrics beckon youthful memories to resurface, enticing you to explore the beauty of your own personal nostalgia.
Laci Kaye Booth redefines what country music can be. She’s the soul of Dylan with the vocal beauty of Mazzy Star swirling in a landscape painted by Lana Del Rey. Her dreamy country music is a mesmerizing art that captivates critics and reaches the hearts of her fans with genuine sincerity.
