“I realized that as a 35-year-old, pain is something to the dark side or you can use it to get better in some capacity,” Perri reflects. By honoring both her living and late daughters, Perri was able to traverse through her emotions and emerge stronger. Rosie was Perri’s child who was “born silent,” or stillborn. Songs for Carmella: Lullabies & Sing-a-Longs was released in 2019, and then in 2021, Perri released Songs for Rosie. And while processing her emotions through A Lighter Shade of Blue, Perri paused to release two cover albums for her daughters, Carmella and Rosie. The ups and downs thrown at her inspired Perri to find solace in her craft. Between becoming a mom and then, you know, going through miscarriage and loss and then also going through the pandemic … these past years have been crazy for everyone.” “I never imagined I’d be one of those people that literally spent six years making an album, but I also had so much life going on in the middle. “It feels, honestly, better than any other album I’ve put out because I spent the longest time making it,” Perri says of A Lighter Shade of Blue. The album- A Lighter Shade of Blue which dropped June 24-was also the first original studio album that Perri penned since her 2014 album Head or Heart. Moving forward for Perri meant writing a new album that took several years to curate.
