Following her recent singles, “girl in a china shop,” “Tell Her I Said Hi,” and “Used by You,” “Doesn’t Matter” sees Caroline continuing to develop her distinct and dynamic blend of indie-pop and alt-rock. On “Doesn’t Matter,” her dreamy, sing-song vocals dance atop soaring dreamy synths and a driving percussive groove. There’s a playfulness to the song’s instrumentation that compliments Caroline’s captivating, stream-of-consciousness lyricism.
“‘Doesn’t Matter’ is sort of a ‘choose your own storyline’ song,” says Caroline. “I wrote it about a relationship that felt like a double-edged sword; a relationship that had me thinking that maybe the inevitable heartbreak would be worth it. It’s a song about falling, all too carelessly, for someone on a rainy evening with the car radio playing. It’s simple and convoluted and all too accurate, at least from my personal experience.”
At just 22-years-old, Nashville-based Caroline Romano has established herself as a versatile artist, effortlessly transitioning between misty-eyed ballads and fiery alt-rock anthems. Memorializing the highs and lows of young adulthood with her unflinchingly honest songwriting, Caroline has captured the hearts of fans and tastemakers alike.
In 2022, Caroline released her highly-anticipated 16-track debut album, Oddities and Prodigies. She followed the album with her 2023 EP, A Brief Epic, a 6-track project that explored love and loss. With each new single that’s followed, Caroline has continued to reveal new layers of her artistry, resulting in some of her most confident and authentic songs yet.
