The Aces Releases New Song “Solo”
American alt-pop band The Aces, consisting of Cristal Ramirez (vocals/guitar), Katie Henderson (guitar), McKenna Petty (bass) and Alisa Ramirez (drums), released the third single called “Solo” from their upcoming third studio album “I've Loved You For So Long” on March 31, 2023.
The track was written by Alisa Ramirez, Cristal Ramirez, Katie Henderson, McKenna Petty and Keith Varon. Produced by The Aces and Keith Varon.
The band lead singer Cristal Ramirez said of the song, “It's very easy in love, life, and relationships, to find yourself constantly blaming the other people around you. They weren't enough of this, or they were too much of that. I didn't like the way they did this, they made me feel like that. 'Solo' was the first time in a song I actually explored how I was showing up in my relationships and what things were my fault. How my untreated anxiety disorder and perfectionism complex could be the demise of a good thing. That maybe I crave the chaos, and it doesn't just happen to me.”- She continued, “It's a very vulnerable song where I'm kind of like, 'ok maybe I'm also the problem.' There was something very liberating about that. I remember feeling sick to my stomach that day, like I wanted to cry about so many things going on in my life. I felt really hopeless, but I came out of the studio feeling liberated for just owning my shit. It felt like maybe I was onto something, onto the process of actually healing. While we drove the winding hills of Malibu on our way home that evening, blasting the messy demo through the speakers of the car, I knew it was one of my favorite songs we'd ever written.”
The new album is set to be released on June 2, 2023 via Red Bull Records. It is their first album in three years.
The album comprises 11-track, produced by Keith Varon and The Aces. -
