Citywide Bytes—Lana Carter’s new sound

My next guest has just released two new singles, but she’s far from a newcomer to the world of music. In fact, Lana Carter has been recording since she was 10 years old, and her latest releases, “Only at Night” and “Venom” mark a reinvention of herself as an artist.

In this episode, Lana talks about what led to this new chapter in her musical journey and how she’s grown as an artist. She goes into her first song at age 10, and the different topics she’s captured in her music since then. She also shares the stories behind the new singles and what led to their very different dance-pop and pop ballad sounds. We talk social media strategy, live performances, and what’s next.

Closing out the episode is “Only at Night,” which the artist said was inspired by her time going to college in New York.
