Podium Entertainment's upcoming release Bed of Roses has garnered national attention, with People magazine exclusively revealing the cover and announcement of this innovative collaboration between country music sensation Caylee Hammack and New York Times bestselling author Carolyn Brown. The novel, releasing March 7th alongside Hammack's sophomore album of the same name, charts a young woman's path to finding herself—and love—in unexpected places. Each chapter harmoniously aligns with tracks from the album, creating an immersive experience that blends Hammack's musical narrative with Brown's renowned romance writing.
"The second we received this project, we knew how special the opportunity was to help bring music to book form with two amazing storytellers. Caylee and Carolyn are a total dream team, and Podium can't wait to bring this story to book and music lovers alike!" says Acquiring Editor Stephanie Beard.
The creative fusion marks a milestone in storytelling, pairing Hammack's emotional depth—showcased in her latest sultry release "How Long"—with Brown's compelling narrative style that has enchanted millions of readers. For Hammack, whose childhood was spent lost in borrowed paperback romances, this literary endeavor emerged organically from her songwriting. "I envisioned each song on this album as a book initially, so writing one to pair with this project felt like a natural move," explains the Georgia-born artist, whose new album features 13 tracks blending gypsy soul, 70s twang, and heel-stomping, red-dirt rock.
Fans can check out Bed of Roses anywhere you listen on March 7th. For exclusive behind-the-scenes content, including interviews with Hammack about the inspiration behind each chapter and its corresponding song, visit cayleehammack.com.
