signature song “Disco Ball,” Glide
Magazinesays:
“There is a Regina Spektor-type
intimacy and honesty that pours out of ‘Disco
Ball…’ that reveals a young artist able to remain composed while being
vulnerable.” “A voice that’s as malleable and conversational as it
is riveting and unconventional,” says MAGNET.

[STREAM]: https://Fanatic.lnk.to/CaitlinCobbVialet-NotEnough +++ “I’m moving
to Oregon / With Noah forever / I’ll see you on Facebook / Or maybe I’ll mute
you / Whatever” When Caitlin
Cobb-Vialet sits down at her grand piano in San Francisco, it feels like
you are sitting on the bench right next to her. The young songwriter and
multi-instrumentalist creates immediate intimacy in the opening moments of her debut
album Endless Void, out now via War
Chant Records. The songs are often fleeting (“Not Enough” clocks at a slim two minutes), but it doesn’t matter; Cobb-Vialet imparts so much feeling in
such a small amount of time. +++ PLAY, POST & SHARE Caitlin
Cobb-Vialet | “Ask Me”
[VIDEO]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9WUSpY83mI [STREAM]: https://fanatic.lnk.to/CaitlinCobbVialet-AskMe +++ “There is something disarmingly real and genuine with
her approach to the craft.” — SF Weekly “The song finds Caitlin at her beloved piano,
reminiscent of early Regina Spektor,
as she plucks out rich chords to accompany her soaring, heartfelt vocals,” says
music discovery site For The Rabbits
in its premiere
coverage of the music video of “Ask
Me,” the new single by Caitlin
Cobb-Vialet. “That feeling of closeness, described beautifully throughout
the track... is punctuated by the feeling that this love is ultimately
fleeting.” “‘Ask Me’
is a song I wrote inspired by the newfound feeling of safeness and
understanding that I felt in my first queer relationship,” Caitlin Cobb-Vialettells
Adobe & Teardrops. “At the
end of the song, I come to the realization that ‘even in love you’re still
alone,’ alluding to the temporary nature of even powerful love.” Americana UKstates
that the song “feels immediately familiar. A gorgeously tuneful but
conversational style that feels like she is baring her soul to you.” +++ Caitlin Cobb-Vialet | About
When Caitlin
Cobb-Vialet sits down at her grand piano in San Francisco, it feels like
you are sitting on the bench right next to her. The young songwriter and
multi-instrumentalist creates immediate intimacy in the opening moments of her
upcoming debut album Endless Void, out now via War Chant Records. The songs are often
fleeting (album
opener“Not Enough” clocking at
a slim two minutes, for example), but it doesn’t matter; Cobb-Vialet imparts so much feeling in such a small amount of time. Discovered by visionary bay area producer, Jim Greer (credits include Foster The People, Macy Gray, Angelo Moore
of Fishbone), Cobb-Vialet is, actually and truly, a discovery. It even feels like
the songs must have been hidden from the songwriter herself, only being
recognized and realized as they are being performed. Cobb-Vialet’s studies at the Playwrights
Horizons Theater School at New York
University’s Tisch School of the
Arts could have something to do with the dramatic effect of that. “The studio encouraged me to be a well-rounded artist
who could write, direct, design, as well as act,” Cobb-Vialet explains. Immersed in what she describes as the “busy-ness” of
college, performing and composing as part of several productions at once, Cobb-Vialet’s musical theater
background and love of the abstract art that she was exposed to in downtown NYC
provided the experiences that she had been readied for as a child brought up in
a progressive, blended home. “I was raised by four moms,” she explains. “I had two
moms, and then when I was in the fifth grade, they separated and partnered with
two moms of kids at my school. So I have two moms, two step-moms, my brother,
and six step-siblings who I’ve known since elementary school.” As the oldest child, Cobb-Vialet was bound to be looked to in the household as an
example (many of her siblings are also in the arts), but her insights hit home
outside of her literal home, too. Especially with Greer,
who is effusive about their work together. “At our first meeting, she played me a few songs, and
right away I heard shades of so many songwriters I’ve always been a fan of,” he
remembers. “Bits of Freddie Mercury,
Kate Bush, David Bowie, Regina Spektor
– the kind of artists that make their own universe and communicate wide swaths
of emotion and beauty.” Accessing for herself these timeless artist’s knack
for accessibility is part of the inherent potential Cobb-Vialet’s songs have to connect and convey a unique young life
that, even now, isn’t often represented. “Besides love and heartbreak, these songs also explore
queerness, consent, mental illness, friendship, and coming of age,” she says.
“As an artist I would say I am non-linear, emotional, brutally honest, and
relentless.” The fleeting intimacy that takes place at the bench of
Cobb-Vialet’s grand piano... It is
quite grand indeed. Endless Void, the debut album by Caitlin
Cobb-Vialet, is out now via War
Chant Records. Caitlin Cobb-Vialet
