Maggie Rose Debuts Latest Digital 45 "Change the Whole Thing" + "Hey Blondie"

Maggie Rose -- who Refinery29 calls country's Adele -- debuted tracks "Change The Whole Thing" and "Hey Blondie," the latest digital 45 in Maggie's five-part release series.

Watch the video Maggie's "hopeful" new tune, "Change The Whole Thing" via Taste of Country. 

Watch the video for "Hey Blondie," which Parade says "showcases Rose's stellar vocal chops with a funkified rhythm section and full on rock 'n' roll sensibility. It's fabulous, fresh and full of life."

"Change the Whole Thing" is a soulful track with a hopeful message of encouragement to those daunted by personal struggles or disappointments in the world around them. When tragedy and heartbreak seem insurmountable, sometimes it is best to keep the faith and simply tackle one small task at a time, which Rose reminds us with her sweetly smooth delivery of the lyric "you don't have to change the whole thing, you just have to leave it a little better." 

The wildly energetic bop, "Hey Blondie," is a tip of the hat to one of Rose's idols, Debbie Harry, who took what could have been a reductive nickname, Blondie, and instead made it her powerful moniker and legacy. Maggie's performance encapsulates what she calls "the right amount of piss and vinegar," fully displaying all the confidence and bravado Harry has possessed throughout her career. Throughout the fiery rocker, Maggie's bold, playful attitude shines as she calls out with each verse different examples of realities women face that she would like to see change, yet women are still out there hustling and overcoming. 

This is the latest digital 45 in a series of releases leading into a forthcoming LP (TBA). All co-produced by Maggie and stamped with her affinity for finely-crafted melodies and intricate storytelling, her latest and forthcoming releases encompass what she's been preparing for her entire career, music she's held inside herself and now fully able to lay down. Backed by her 13-piece family band -- featuring players for Kelly Clarkson, Them Vibes, Brothers Osborne and Steven Tyler -- Maggie recorded 13 songs completely live in one take, no overdubs, no autotune, no bullshit, all while being documented by a camera crew; highlighting an artist in complete command of her creative and prolific career.

Maggie will be taking this new music on the road this summer and into the fall. In addition to her own headline tour dates, Maggie will play both this year's CMA Fest and Bonnaroo, plus direct support dates for Kelly Clarkson, Drake White, Bobby Bones, and Hunter Hayes.
