NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Indie singer/songwriter, and country recording artist, Karly C (Quirky Cowgirl Records) is pleased to introduce her newest single "You've Seen Heaven," a fervent, faith-filled ballad embracing those bereaved through death. The songstress' 29th studio recording, the expressive original will be released Friday, May 2, 2025 via all digital retail and streaming platforms. (Presale/Pre-save Event begins April 18, 2025.)
Beaming with swelling string instrumentals and powerful yet ethereal vocals, "You've Seen Heaven" is a believer's intimate conversation with a departed loved one. Hopeful, ardent lyrics seek comfort and reassurance that heaven is as we imagine in the pictures painted in our minds. Evoking a sense of transcendence, the storyline transports the audience to the realm of light beyond.
"I wrote and recorded it as a tribute to my aunt. The song fell from the sky; I started with a few chords and a simple melody, and somehow, the lyrics started flowing as if she were guiding me," said “You’ve Seen Heaven” songwriter and co-producer, Karly. "While this song is deeply personal to me, I truly believe it’s for anyone grieving and missing someone who is no longer here. I hope it brings comfort and peace to anyone who needs it, no matter the time of year because there’s no season for missing someone."
Cause you’ve seen heaven
What’s it like
Are the roads made of endless clouds
Are the angels dressed in white?
Do you tell stories
About your life?
Do you ever come to visit
Besides in my dreams at night?
Reminiscent of 90s country sound stamped with modern contemporary production and warm melodious instrumentals, the soft melody is backdropped by layers of guitars, keys, strings, pedal steel, fiddle and a vocal tempo that climbs with a cry. Tender and emotional, Karly delivers every note like a whisper. [Karly performs keys while her husband, Mike Matisa, accompanies on guitar, joined by Nashville A-list studio musicians Mike Johnson (pedal steel) and Tania Hancheroff (background vocals).]
The new single follows the momentum of Karly C’s 2024 singles, "Today I Get To Say," written and recorded for her wedding day, and the cross-over single, "Dreaming About You." The "You've Seen Heaven" country radio promotion campaign will be spearheaded by Jennifer Blair with an impact date of May 19, 2025.
