 By Nicole Marchesi Rising star Kaitlin Butts storms into the scene with her new album “Roadrunner!” Released on June 28th, creating the 17-track album was a long road but worth every second. The album showcases Kaitlin’s unique blend of musical theater and country influences. Highlighting her song “Others Girls”, Kaitlin said it was inspired by a line in one of her favorite musicals “Oklahoma”. The line reads “Other girls are coy an' hard to catch. But other girls ain't havin' any fun!” Which she found to be hilarious and relatable, hoping others would too. Modernizing the concept and adding a country flare, Kaitlin loved “Other Girls” so much that she decided to follow it up with a music video. Directed by Chris Beyrooty, the music video was inspired by the dream sequence in “Oklahoma”. It features Kailin in a beautiful emerald green dress surrounded by dancers reminiscent of the 1920s era. A one-take wonder, you can watch the music video HERE.
Kaitlin celebrated the release at the historic Grand Ole Opry. She explained what that experience was like saying, “Getting asked back [to the Opry], getting asked in the first place is insane. A really neat surreal experience every time, but then getting to have these new songs out and getting to play them on the Opry stage is pretty unreal!” Playing at the Opry and all over the country, Kaitlin was most excited about playing at this year’s Under The Big Sky Festival in Whitefish, MT. A bucket list festival for Kaitlin who had been watching her idols play there year after year, she was ecstatic when she heard the news. Kaitlin had the opportunity to share the stage with Miranda Lambert, Billy Strings, Turnpike Troubadours, Charles Wesley Godwin, and more. Reiterating how grateful she is that the songs are out in the world, go check out “Roadrunner!” HERE and find Kaitlin performing in a city near you by visiting her website https://www.kaitlinbutts.com/.
