She cried, I cried, we all cried? 🥹

[@JohnnyRabbitQC]

Yes 😪

[@mlgallagher1]

Sobbing. 😭 and I saw her live and I have never cried so much during a concert. Incredibly moving.

[@robczypinski1725]

Same - saw them in Milwaukee - so incredibly moving and powerful. Can’t imagine the energy it took for them to give so much of themselves every night on tour. So grateful that they did. 🙏🏼

[@mcgoguen]

Mos def ;) been listening long enough to see the glorious development of her sound. ❤❤❤

[@lukeshea7465]

Confirmed

[@ChimneyMan27]

Fucking hell, this is it. We did it everyone, we can all go home now.

[@Fordtruck4sale]

Whoever engineered this should be proud of themselves.

[@Fordtruck4sale]

I think it was Caroline btw ;)

[@revmaynardd]

Caroline said on IG she did the mixing earlier today.

[@etiennebisilliatdonnet5928]

Audio Engineers: Jon Roberts, Julian Martlew Audio Mixer: Caroline Rose The sound engineers did record the whole stuff, she did the mixing.

[@markymarcm]

Love the pumping sidechain compression on the cymbals on that first track!

[@reallyordinary]

It's a crime against humanity that this hasn't been viewed 500k times yet.

[@Wagdog]

The Art of Forgetting is a masterpiece.

[@benfoster1018]

Has probably become my favourite record of theirs

[@THELONIOUSMONstertrucK]

This is a modern masterpiece, and I don't say that lightly. I've always thought Caroline is amazing, but I've gotta say this band is stoopid good. I'm so impressed and grateful I got to experience this music

[@erinstark5450]

I just saw them in concert last night and it was INCREDIBLE. She is so giving to her audiences, so interactive, authentic, energetic... They are amazing.

[@spiflication]

Caroline breaks my heart with the way she sings. Seeing her so vulnerable on here is something no one else puts into their music. Caroline is so amazing

[@spiflication]

Please don’t quit music Caroline!

[@parkerasmus]

This is definitely the best KEXP session there ever was. She’s so bad ass in so many ways

[@joncarnes3911]

A lot of people care about you Caroline Rose! Don't forget this, please!!!

[@tarable]

Don't mind me, just quietly sobbing over the beauty of this performance. Uncle Carol forever ❤

[@kz.m4251]

Uncle Carol forever indeed!

[@jackbross]

Everywhere I Go I Bring the Rain was a religious experience

[@robczypinski1725]

Beatlesesque…

[@veerysmoothie]

please lord let them be known by every soul in this universe. their art has to be listened to by absolutely everyone

[@fossie32]

I'm 69 and rarely come across new music that I like [I know] but happened to find Caroline's Art of Forgetting and love her music and the emotion she puts into it. Very moving.

[@TheRealAdamT]

Nice

[@lukeweber6662]

Caroline was one of the most down-to-earth and kind artists I've met. Such an incredible performer and artist, their growth is just unbelievable.

[@BradleyFielding]

I can also say, Caroline is one of the best artists you’ll ever see perform live. I saw them in May in Manchester, England and it was the rawest and most emotive performance I’ve ever seen from any musician. I spent the first half of the set weeping like a newborn baby. The second half of songs from the first two albums were great fun and everyone in the venue was dancing! 🥲

[@tommilton9293]

I was there in Manchester too! Was just breathtaking, the most raw, emotional set I've ever been too. She's ridiculously talented.

[@TheRealAdamT]

Totes jelly

[@stuartmoffat1754]

I was also there, and can concur! 😢

[@fabe61]

The quality of recoridng with KEXP is always just insane

[@nickcal777]

Miami was powerful

[@bluelava4282]

Touching Lyrics……. True Artist….. Sings with Passion so strong

[@bluelava4282]

Lovely performance 🎭

[@Joe83412]

One of the best sets I’ve ever seen on KEXP. So powerful, so beautiful.💔

[@TheSombraGroup]

This performance made me more emotional than any other. I’m a forty year old hooman.

[@luismanuelalvarezpedrosa434]

Speechless. The most beautiful half hour of music I've heard in years.

[@kristenhall2017]

Watching them perform, I realize why they have regrets about this album. I'm glad Uncle Carol shared it with us, but I hope their break after all the touring is done is long and lovely.

[@addamwoolf4796]

Once again KEXP lead me to a fantastic new artist. ✌🏻🖤🐺

[@eRRoRoiD]

KEXP is a goldmine that keeps on giving i swear, so much new music i love every week

[@TheSombraGroup]

I love the fact I missed my favorite living musician because of a job I no longer have. Okay I’m gonna go cry now. 💕

[@adamb.4585]

Man I love those floor toms. Boooom!

[@CatmanJimbo]

I love Riley's drumming!

[@tobypresnell316]

Caroline Rose puts on one of the best live shows you will ever see. Caught the last tour in Portland and was blown away.

[@franciscorossi9629]

ok, this is my first time listening this band. 19:45 it`s the exactly instant that you have conquer my heart. Here i`am, a new brand fan.

[@ParkerPoses]

Tell Me What You Want 00:45 Love Song For Myself 04:50 Everywhere I Go I Bring the Rain 08:54 Miami 15:42

[@Sorakorra]

thank you

[@flamingbabygames]

Miami made me cry when I saw Uncle Carol in Denver a couple months ago. You could see the tears in her eyes, and it was just so good.

[@jbirdrose8974]

Agree. I was crying, they were crying it was a whole thing... Stunning

[@fossie32]

❤

[@leafnlore2712]

Holy shit. Powerful performance. This was quite an introduction to this artist and this band.

[@PedroMGS]

Can we just please praise the drummer specially in the end of "Tell Me What You Want"? WOW!

[@JennniferLeeKerns]

As a Vermonter, I've been following Caroline's musical journey for over a decade or maybe even more and it's so freakin' awesome to see her musical evolution and development. A super special human, deep soul, with such musical talent and genius. So raw, honest. I was really moved to see this side of her musically, and honestly, I prefer it. Totally stripped down, direct, honest, less pop vibes but still pop vibes. It reminded me of her roots in country music as a singer-songwriter that maybe not everyone is aware of that side of her musically. It is like both worlds collided. So sorry that pain and suffering produces the most beautiful music and creative endeavors, because the artist has to go through that and you can sense the depth of her vulnerability here. Uncle Carol, we love you. Take some good rest for your soul, regenerate, we'll be here if and when you return. xoxo jennycakes

[@user-fl6ko9do5y]

Fantastic show with LA Force this week. Dang girl. Took my young aspiring lady musicians with me, knowing it would be inspirational,..but it was past this. I am live music connoisseur(uncountable), know quite a bit of skilled musicians.....and this might have been the most vulnerable raw and pitch perfect show I have ever seen. Absolute Artistry on many many levels. 100% present in the zone and connection to the creative emotional force completely tapped in. To watch I was floored. Lump in throat, pressure in my chest, some tears from the reception of energy exchange, ...most definitely eyes welled up . and then some dancing. She took us on a journey that's for sure, with her, and your own, and collective- the feels are going to be exposed. I would recommend smaller venues as a viewer, You want to feel this one. Only a small number of artists are better live then mastered their recorded tracks, and even if they are, not all are on point. She is one of them. The band with her was also a well oiled group . La Force is perfectly named. Yes, Poetry. We were lucky to see both artists. Highly recommend. Beautiful.

[@coughlinalext]

This is art. Can't help but think about Caroline playing/touring Superstar which is this great pop album but going through this awful breakup. I saw her in SF and she seemed distant; I can see why. She is carrying a lot. I hope she keeps making music.

[@candysueellison3299]

Me too! This album has meant so much to me and helped me so much with my own heartbreak. They’re brilliant!!!!

[@neileskins3501]

I've seen Caroline a few times before, she's incredibly funny and always has a great band behind her. Her music seems to be progressing in interesting ways and her lyrics are always brilliant. The performance of Miami on this session was incredible, one of the best kexp sessions I've seen. If she comes to your town, go and see her! (and buy merch)

[@TheFS2004guru]

Last time I saw her live, she walked off the stage into the theatre and just sat down in the audience for a bit during an interlude and she went “woah it’s cool from back here”. It was pretty humorous

[@lotusmilano]

Uncle Carol is a national treasure

[@livingroomforus]

full body chills in miami

[@aaaaannn]

Favorite album of 2023 🫶

[@beerandloathingpdx]

Whelp I’m crying on my way to work… thank you uncle carol.

[@GuitarWoerke]

Ah man. This might be my favourite KEXP recording and the Art of Forgetting is easily one of my favourites of this year and a collection of songs that I'll still be listening to years later.

[@tessawilson2842]

Holy shit. So incredible. Caroline you are a genius!

[@MartinezJosie]

This performance was the emotional equivalent of a Fatality in Mortal Kombat. This album obliterates my heart and I haven’t stopped reaching for the knife since my first listen.

[@serenitybysaf]

they are so so so sooo amazing everyone who enjoyed this go listen to “the art of forgetting” immediately!!!!!

[@smokeybrights]

Wowowowow💔Been waiting for this session for a minute. The songs, the players, the voice, the sounds - just so damn goooooood!!!!

[@artichoke1573]

maaaan they really took their time releasing this one. Sooo worth it.

[@thomashooper2649]

Yes we have finally been blessed

[@polinabam9531]

So amazing. "Miami" always gives me goosebumps but this was exceptional.

[@zackszabadi7386]

So proud of you Uncle Carol. What a beautiful record.

[@bjwnashe5589]

This is one of the best KEXP sessions I've seen and heard. And there's been a lot of great ones. This one is special.

[@watapartja5533]

[@fredsons]

[@yoteach5459]

I've loved all of Caroline's work so far and this album isn't any different. Hope she feels great after this album cycle and continues to create dope stuff

[@letgolightly4444]

[@robotvoice1]

I so wish there was an entire show recorded this well.

[@steveziane6317]

[@peegirl69]

LISTENING AT MAX SPEED IS THE BEST

[@cristiantrushin]

One of the best performances I saw on KEXP.

[@lukeywebo]

YES! I've been waiting on this performance for the longest time. This record has been my absolute favorite of the year by far. Caroline is just incredible. What an outstanding songwriter, performer, and artist! This is great and deserves to be played everywhere. Looking forward to an Austin show sometime in the near future. I have to witness that production in person!

[@TheRealAdamT]

Me too! San Antonio here but will gladly drive to Austin for Uncle Carol

[@Gadulaksinjan]

What an absolute banger that performance is! So much honesty, pure, raw emotion.

[@johnsomething567]

What a talented person. Omgosh

[@vintagegirl7478]

Caroline you're such a sweetheart :')

[@kayleyraemusic]

This is one of my all time fav KEXP sessions. mind blowing.

[@arnoldobh]

[@joepoz88]

What an awesome performance. Real lyrics, real feelings, real appreciation!

[@doubleuses]

[@denverrandy7143]

When she comes back to Denver,im there!!!👍

[@xTheOxx]

I love the album but this is even better. Wow

[@laks1616]

You really should see them live if you get the chance. Transcendental in all directions.

[@Furbabyloverr]

It’s nice to hear her going back to country roots a bit. She’s made absolute MAGIC ❤

[@757GLG]

Just A+ all around. Lordy!

[@jajastrzemb]

Her sound, the whole team, it’s devastating.

[@SamCoffman]

[@mrsrobertcaverly]

🔥live performance. Congrats! Hope you keep making music, wherever it takes you.🙋🏻‍♀️

[@dduaerte]

I’m so looking forward to see you Caroline! ❤💔😍

[@TeepleBass]

Loving the way that Serek bass sits in the mix! Great band! Awesome songs!

[@dannyhernandez8617]

Utterly fantastic

[@pushingdaisy5975]

beautifully designed music overall had me in tears , i really relate to her story about her grandmother 😢

[@jasonclark2262]

Chills

[@dawnbreak08]

One of the most impactful studios session on KEXP I've seen. I have loved Caroline Rose, but was late this year taking the time to listen to this latest album. What an incredible LP; hearing it live would be a heart-dropping event, no doubt. I've missed the tour though, and now this interview has me worried Caroline will quit the profession before seeing them tour again. I'm thankful for this video and the album at least.

[@claudiaisakimusic]

most beautiful live mix I've ever heard // Caroline and the band.. breathtaking

[@notofthisearth23]

Beautiful, i hope you keep creating and playing music Caroline.

[@mlgallagher1]

That was so powerful! God damn. 😭😭

[@grayyoungblood7424]

Just a wonderful set. Saddened with the fact that you are considering not continuing with music. You are a special talent.

[@diegocifuentessilva]

SO BEAUTIFULLY EMOTIVE 😭

[@billmcmatt3107]

i love u kid!!!!

[@xenimaging]

Such a great performance!

[@maeve_edgarmauer]

I saw her live with her band in Paris few months ago and god, I loved it so much. I was having such a bad day this day and after the concert I felt so so much better.

[@Auldhelm]

Wowzers that ending was intense!!

[@philrose3524]

"AoF" best live concert I've ever been to!

[@carsonleo9831]

Who tf did the sound on this. This is incredible

[@sesshomaru322]

Absolutely breathtaking performance. I love this album, and it's amazing to see the songs performed live with so much passion. I could hear in the last song as their voice was on the verge of tears. I cried at the end seeing them cry. I've been going through a very tough time emotionally, and I wish at times I could forget everything too. Thank you for sharing this music, and for having the courage to be vulnerable.

[@bomidalsasquatch]

So killer!

[@jimross1976]

Solid band. Enjoyed that set.
