Eileen Carey Interview – Written by: Rudie Humphrey

The award-winning California-based singer/songwriter’s fourth and latest album LET IT GO features songs which follow through on the theme on letting go of those ties that bind us to the past and perhaps no song is more evident than the title track, “Let It Go,” a thumping up-tempo country pop tune about forgetting the small things or events from our past that lead to insecurities and indecisions of life.

Put That Tequila Down and “Bottle Your Crazy Up!”

Put That Tequila Down and “Bottle Your Crazy Up!” Hold the ice, Eileen Carey has good advice in her latest single. It’s mixed for good ole’ country ‘Dance Halls Days’ and already has the music charts ablaze.

“This world’s a rollercoaster of up and downs; through my music I try to get people to a better place in their life through a new perspective.”- Eileen Carey

(PASADENA, CALIFORNIA, USA) September 3rd, 2014 – Whoa girl, put that tequila down! ‘Let It Go’ or you might do something you’ll regret! Instead, “Bottle Your Crazy Up,” as the lyrics suggest, in the latest offering from country artist Eileen Carey’s album, Let It Go. The song “Bottle Your Crazy Up” goes down smooth – as it is mixed into three flavors. Two versions are blended for “Dance Hall Days.” A third, bottled for radio currently has the country charts ablaze!

bycu“Bottle Your Crazy Up” is the second single to drop off of Let It Go, which is Carey’s fourth album released since her debut in 2002. Critics have hailed Let It Go as her best work to date. The song follows the creative blueprint this award-winning songwriter always rolls out when composing, “It is the story in any song is key for me,” she explains. However, Carey is especially excited about this single as she offers more insight, “This single speaks of a woman telling another not to rebound after a breakup on her first date. She advises her friend not to drink the tequila, to be on her best behavior, save the crazy for later.”

The original version of “Bottle Your Crazy Up,” is currently ascending the country radio charts and has already moved into the Top 40 on the New Music Weekly Country Main Charts. The other two versions include a dance and club mix, which are slated for use in Eileen’s whirlwind radio and dance club tour which has dates booked through Kentucky and Tennessee from September 22nd, 2014 through September 26th, 2014.“Bottle Your Crazy Up” was penned by Bart Almond and Amy Dalley and produced by the talented Nashville/Los Angeles based Travis Allen Childress of Nashville Tracks.

There’s a reason Eileen Carey is one of California’s most popular country songwriters and performers; she hooks her songs with message and melody. “Bottle Your Crazy Up is fun-loving dance song with the boot-scooters in mind. It’s lyrically-loaded, line-dancing lover’s lick. So, hold the salt, lime and ice and before you take that drink… think! Put it down, Let it Go and “Bottle Your Crazy Up.” Save all that energy for the oak floors and Eileen’s dance hall tours!
