Janet Devlin Reveals New Single ‘Daddy,’ Showcasing a Fresh Take on Gender Roles
Janet Devlin is cementing her status as a bonafide country-rock star in the making. After securing the 4th spot on the iTunes Country Chart with breakthrough single ‘Emotional Rodeo’ earlier this year, the artist continues to offer glimpses into her upcoming highly-anticipated album under the same title. The latest addition is the sharp, humorous ‘Daddy,’ an uplifting hit that sheds light on gender role expectations within relationships.
Switching up the idea that ‘sugar daddies’ are typically male, Devlin takes on the role herself and converts the concept into her most energized offering to date. Recorded at the iconic Blackbird Studios in Nashville, the singer-songwriter crafts an electric fusion of traditional country-rock elements with vivid vocal delivery, seamlessly introducing an authentic take on the genre once again.
The lyrics are a stand-out feature, influenced by internet trends and the expectation on men to be the breadwinner. With its fun-loving attitude to match, Devlin provides a fresh female perspective – and we truly can’t get enough of it. ‘You can call me Daddy (Daddy) ‘Cause I’m the one who’s paying the bills’ is a memorable chorus that will linger long after the first listen, preceding the charm of previous single ‘Country Singer.’
