Ithaca, NY-based indiepop artist ROSE ALAIMO presents ‘A Place To Go When You Need To Hide’, her third full-length album, plus the video for ‘Stars’, which is about finding an unexpected moment of stillness in the midst of a crazy world. Co-produced and mastered by JAMIE HILL(Nada Surf, Zola Jesus, House of Pain), this honest, hopeful and emotive record follows Alaimo’s internal struggles as she finds her way through darkness to harness her own will-power and self-empowerment. It is no coincidence that this album entails an element of contrast between light and darkness.
Alaimo explains, “‘A Place to Go When You Need to Hide’ is a concept album, a story, about the high highs and low lows of life and how they can be a lot to navigate without losing ourselves in the waves. About how we all have a place inside of ourselves, where we can go when the world gets to be too much… These songs were written during the worst parts of Covid, amid massive political unrest and racial tension in the US, an uptick in school shootings, the onset of Russia’s war on Ukraine, and more generalized anger and tension between people than I have ever seen.”
