5 Questions With - Cady Groves
I haven’t written anything about Cady Groves in a while, and that’s a shame. She has been releasing some new things lately, and I think the world should hear them. Maybe we’ll get to that later. Hopefully.
Cady first popped up on P!B!B! when she appeared (out of nowhere) on my list of favorite songs of 2011. Her single “This Little Girl” was a knockout, and though it didn’t make it to radio and charting and all that (WHICH IT TOTALLY DESERVED), I loved it. I think this girl could go places.
Cady answered a few questions for me about a million years ago, and it is about time I posted it.
No really though, this happened like, months ago. Sorry Cady, things got crazy. Better late than never? Don’t hate me?!
1. "This Little Girl" was one of my favorite songs of last year, and I still listen to it every day. Everyone I play it for loves it! Why hasn't this thing taken over the world yet?
Ha! Im wondering the same thing!!! But take it from someone who learned this the hard way...it's all a process. It'll happen it just takes time if I'm going for longevity as an artist and NOT a one hit wonder!! Wow, my A&R would be so Proud of this answer..
2. I don't know who this guy is that you write all your songs about, but he must have really fucked with you. Is all this music helping you get over, or is it just to tell him how much you hate him?
This album saved my life literally. Writing this and even thinking about all of the pain and god awful hurt that went into this album is even emotional now. I don't hate this guy. He did a big number on my soul. But he has to live with himself and atleast I don't.
3. I've heard people compare you to a wide range of artists. Who would you compare yourself to? Who could I possibly file you next to in my mind?
I don't honestly like to compare myself to anyone cause there isn't anyone I'm tryna be like to be honest. I really respect Dixie chicks and Alanis Morissette so much though. I have loved them since I was 5!!
4. When can we expect the next single? The album? When will you come see us in Boston so we can shit on ex boyfriends and sing together?
Ha! Well..the next single will come when my first single, this little girl, takes over the universe!!!! Haha and my album will be out soon I promise!! Do all y'all in Boston really eat a lot of beans? When I go to Mexican food places I have to admit I always get no beans.
5. (I ask this of everyone) What are some bands or artists that you are listening to now that we should all go out and try?
I gotta be honest. I rarely listen to "cool" music. I like country music a lot. I know every country song on the radio!! I love the song "hazy" by rosi golan and William fitzsimmons..I love the first Carrie underwood album!! I love alanis Morissette's jagged little pill album. I've taken that album with me through every significant and insignificant experience in my life. Feels like it's a huge part of who I am.
Thanks for the interview batch!!!
I didn’t mean for that shitting on ex-boyfriends thing to get so nasty, but it went there. Cady is just that kind of girl. Love it or lump it I suppose (we love it).
Cady is on Facebook and has her own site of course. You can also buy Cady’s “This Little Girl” in single or EP form, and she’s got a fun new single “Love Actually” and some old records here and here, if you’re very interested (you should be).
Big thanks Cady. Can't wait to see you taking over!
