Polaroid Lovers is the seventh studio album by American singer-songwriter Sarah Jarosz. It was released on January 26, 2024, by Rounder Records. The album was produced by Daniel Tashian.
Jarosz began writing the album after she relocated from New York City to Nashville, Tennessee. Jarosz collaborated with songwriters Daniel Tashian, Ruston Kelly, and Natalie Hemby, with Tashian producing the album. Michael Maejor of BroadwayWorld wrote that this writing process "evolved to include a much richer and more electric sound" in the songs. [1]
The album's lead single, "Jealous Moon", was released on September 7, 2023 simultaneously with the album's announcement. Of the song, Jarosz said in a press release that the song was "about the times when the parts of ourselves that we try to keep hidden rise to the surface, and we have no choice but to ride the wave", further elaborating that the lyrics were "a moment of self-reflection and a promise to keep showing up even when things get tough" as opposed to an end of a relationship. [2]
The second single, "Columbus & 89th", was released on October 10, 2023. [3] An accompanying music video filmed on the Upper West Side of New York City was released to promote the song. [4] Jarosz later performed the song on CBS Saturday Morning on December 16, 2023. [5]

Bluebird is the fifteenth studio album by American country artist Emmylou Harris, released on January 10, 1989, by Warner Records. Featuring mostly interpretations of work by artists such as the McGarrigle Sisters, Tom Rush, and Rodney Crowell, it included her most recent top-ten country-charting single, "Heartbreak Hill". The album enjoyed renewed interest in 2004 when "Heaven Only Knows" was used in the first episode of the fifth season of The Sopranos.
The Ballad of Sally Rose is the eleventh studio album by American singer Emmylou Harris released in February 1985. It marked a significant departure for Harris for two reasons. First, all the songs were written by her and her then-husband Paul Kennerley, while her previous albums had consisted mostly of others' material. Secondly, it is a concept album, loosely based on Harris' relationship with Gram Parsons. The album tells the story of a character named Sally Rose, a singer whose lover and mentor, a hard-living, hard-drinking musician, is killed while on the road. Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and Gail Davies sing harmony on several of the songs. Many of the songs flow into one another to create a continuous momentum.
Cimarron is the ninth studio album by Emmylou Harris that, like its predecessor, Evangeline, was composed mostly of outtakes from other recording sessions that had not fit into any of Harris' other albums. As a result, critics at the time complained that the album was "choppy" and lacked a unifying sound. Nonetheless, the album did well on the U.S. country charts, and featured three top-ten country singles: "Born to Run", "If I Needed You", and "Tennessee Rose." It was nominated for a Grammy in 1982 for Best Country Vocal Performance, Female. In 2000, Eminent Records issued Cimarron for the first time on CD, with new liner notes and a bonus track, "Colors of Your Heart."
