As the Grammy-winning singer-songwriter explained on Instagram, “Caught the writing bug out of the blue and made an EP. It’s called This Summer. I’ll be releasing a new track every couple of weeks until it’s release.”
Listen to the feel-good, reggae-tinged “Ready” below.
Cara’s sophomore full-length, The Pains of Growing, featured one of last year’s best songs, “Trust My Lonely”. She’s currently supporting the release on tour with Shawn Mendes. This fall, the singer will lead her own “The Pains of Growing Tour” with support from Ryland James. The outing will begin at the end of October and continue until mid-November.
