CATE TOMLINSON Looks Inward With Latest Single ‘Before I Lose You’
Rising artist, Cate Tomlinson, has released the final single from her debut EP Missing.
At just 19-years-old, Cate Tomlinson is proving her talent and emotional intelligence with Before I Lose You, an introspective yet upbeat track about swallowing your pride and making things right.
To start, the song highlights Tomlinson’s strong and sultry register as her voice echoes through what feels like an empty room. The impending loneliness is fleeting though, as an electric kick and snare are quick to greet you and transport to a music club packed with people and slathered in neon.
While musically, the song is bold and electro-tinted, Tomlinson still manages to keep a certain honesty within her voice that bleeds through the chiffon-like pop to give way to her singer-songwriter roots. It is this natural, not over-produced characteristic that elevates Before I Lose You to a listening experience that offers you a first-person perspective of the song’s origin story.
Offering more, Tomlinson says:
‘Before I Lose You’ came out of a really uncomfortable situation. I made a mistake and it was the first time I was the person in a friendship who had really messed up, and it was on me to repair our relationship, swallow my pride and apologize.
