Nashville Indie Rock. - Kelsey Waters: You Got This

Kelsey Waters has been a recording artist since the age of 14. With her new single You Got This, she rolls her life story into a batch of dark, guitar-fueled songs inspired by electric rock & roll and pop noire.

With a nod to her favorite 90’s rockers like Sheryl Crow, Joan Osborne and Fiona Apple, Kelsey Waters has returned to a raw sense of emotion and vulnerability, built with the classic tools of indie rock: a sharp perspective, a memorable hook, and a kernel of ultimate truth. The feeling here is centered around that moment of instinct, that brief connection to the most primal part of yourself that understands feelings, and not words; and the truth will always be different than the first impression.

Pretty as a picture, genuine pretender
Keeping it together with glitter and mascara

Through the magic of creative expression, we find a counterpart to the daily struggles of life: from getting out of bed, and then out the door, making every day count takes a certain amount of resolve. With her new single You Got This, Kelsey Waters wants you to know that she’s got your back, either way you decide to go.
