STREAM: Delaney Ramsdell, ‘Rambler’

Artist: Delaney Ramsdell
Hometown: Roosevelt, Texas
Album: Rambler EP
Release Date: November 2, 2023
Label: North Llano Records

In Their Words: Rambler is a full spectrum look at my life as a writer. From the dark, smoky moments from ‘Withdrawal’ and ‘Carry the Load’ to the forlorn prayers of ‘Kitchen Window’ and ‘Any Good Wife,’ this project covers every corner of my heart. I wanted to make sure that every piece of this record spoke to the rambler in all of us – the travel, the heartbreak, the fun, and the authenticity life brings as we make our way through the world.

“I hope the listener is able to journey down the roads I walked with these songs when I wrote them, and I hope they are able to pave their own way with them as well. The songs are cut and dry and they speak for themselves, but Rambler is my first real venture out into the world as an artist and I’m grateful for the space and chance to have worked with a great team of writers, producers, and players who helped me realize this dream.” – Delaney Ramsdell

In Their Words: “This song is one of my absolute favorites. My dad actually gave me the idea, and growing up in rural West Texas we did so much driving that this topic felt natural. There’s nothing better than feeling free, seeing the beauty of the world, and rambling through life, and that’s exactly what I wanted to represent here. I wrote the song in 2019 with Mia Mantia and Autumn Buysse here in Nashville, and it’s acted as a foundation for me creatively ever since. We tried to include locations that I’d actually been to before, so every time I sing it I have the memories of those places flooding my mind. It’s a special feeling, and I hope the listener hears the heart and the wild spirit we put into the track.” – Delaney Ramsdell
