Says Shadbolt of the concept behind the album: 'For the most part, I’m a happy-go-lucky, country-loving, small town girl. But like everyone, I also have a side that is reflective and introverted. I really wanted to share both sides of me, but was unsure how best to deliver it. So here we are, with two ‘sides’, sharing the extroverted and introverted side of me!'</p><p><br></p><p><em>Bloom &amp; Surrender </em>follows Shadbolt's 2020 album&nbsp;<em>Stages</em>, but she first came to public attention on&nbsp;<em>The X Factor</em>&nbsp;in 2014. Shadbolt is an accomplished songwriter as performer, and her excellent country-pop sensibilities are on display on her new album. We spoke recently about her new songs.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>More about Caitlyn Shadbolt: <a href=\"https://www.caitlynshadbolt.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.caitlynshadbolt.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Listen to <em>Bloom &amp; Surrender</em> on Apple Music: <a href=\"https://apple.co/43T8ePa\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://apple.co/43T8ePa</a></p><p><br></p><p>Listen to <em>Bloom &amp; Surrender</em> on Spotify: <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/album/5FW3FwReSPdFC5fVANPqqe?si=PXwg1fpETk23pCZXsOSf5g\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://open.spotify.com/album/5FW3FwReSPdFC5fVANPqqe?si=PXwg1fpETk23pCZXsOSf5g</a></p><p><br></p><p>Follow Sunburnt Country Music on Instagram: <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/sunburntcountrymusic/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.instagram.com/sunburntcountrymusic/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Follow Sunburnt Country Music on Facebook: <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/sunburntcountrymusic\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.facebook.com/sunburntcountrymusic</a></p><p><br></p><p>Sunburnt Country Music website: <a href=\"https://sunburntcountrymusic.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://sunburntcountrymusic.com</a></p>","author_name":"Sophie Hamley"}
