LA-based indie-pop artist Carrie Lane released her “heartfelt” official music video for her new single “Think About It” everywhere yesterday.
“Think About It” is the third single off Lane’s debut EP, California Freaks, available everywhere now.
“‘Think About It'” is a song for anyone who has turned to a toxic environment in order to escape a painful situation,” Carrie explained in a recent interview with Yahoo Music. “For some people, it’s about hanging on to a person or a situation that isn’t good for them. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a substance or alcohol; in this case the booze symbolized my escape and how I tried to avoid coping with a painful heartbreak by numbing myself to those around me.”

Carrie’s second single off the EP, “If I Can’t Be With You,” made it’s debut on Forever21.com. The accompanying music video premiered on Paste Magazine, who dubbed the vocal performance in the track “flawless”. Lane recently performed the single at Balcony TV in Los Angeles, and you can watch the performance here.
“I wanted to write something that was truly me, not who people want to perceive me to be,” Carrie states. “I wrote this EP from the heart – it’s truly all the sides of me being loved and me as a lover… not every song is pretty and not every lyric is nice, but every note is real and every emotion is me.”
About Carrie Lane
With her contemporary indie-pop vocals, ever-so-relatable lyrics, and bleach blonde wavy locks, New Jersey bred Carrie Lane was born to be in the spotlight. At the age of 18, Carrie became a double threat – she started to write her own songs and began her professional modeling career. After some experience, Carrie was signed to MSA Models of New York and Los Angeles, where she’s landed many prestigious gigs, including a national campaign for Target just last year.
In 2016, Carrie Lane made the move to Los Angeles, where she finished writing and recording her debut EP, fittingly penned California Freaks, released on June 23rd, 2017. The first single from the EP, “Drowning”, was a hit on Spotify, landing on their coveted New Music Friday and Today’s Top Hits playlists. Her most recent single “If I Can’t Be With You” made it’s debut on Forever21.com. The dramatically-written love song also caught the attention of outlets like Galore Magazine, Zooey Deschanel’s HelloGiggles, PopDust and Paste Magazine.
California Freaks is somewhat of a diary for Carrie Lane, full of songs about love and unbearable heartbreak, all written from personal experiences. It’s no question that Carrie stands out as one of the most real, relatable pop acts in a market that’s extremely saturated – there’s a song for every kind of person on the EP.
Carrie is already back in the studio, writing and recording new music.
