As 2023 comes to a close, Nashville-based alt-pop sensation Caroline Romano has revealed her new single, Tell Her I Said Hi. Romano’s latest is a cathartic release of anger packaged into a wholly addictive alt-rock anthem. Equal parts tender and tenacious, she bravely navigates the messy emotions that arise after a transformative heartbreak.

“Tell Her I Said Hi is me closing the final chapter on a particular heartbreak I’ve been writing about for a while,” she explains. “I wrote this song after finding out he had already moved on with someone else just days after we broke up. I was thinking about it nonstop, playing out different scenarios in my head about what I’d say to him if I ever saw him again, and ‘tell her I said hi’ is the line that came to mind. There’s a finality to that sentence that’s both heartbreaking and cathartic. The song itself is jealous, angry, pretty, and exhausting, all at once, much like the ending of our relationship.”
