OFF THE MAP
“Off The Map” is the final chapter of Americana singer-songwriter Juliana Riccardi’s two-single series, The Nashville Sessions, whose first song, “Right On Time” received praise in Billboard Country News upon it’s release.
An acoustic anthem about the visceral desire to unplug and explore the outdoors, “Off The Map” makes listeners head out in the sun, looking up at the clouds and enjoying peace walking in the rain. The song’s delicate opening grows into an emotionally driven landscape with building layers of rhythm, harmony and power resulting in a cinematic story. The song is available to stream and download now on all digital platforms.
On March 1, 2023, Juliana released "Right On Time (The Nashville Session)" - a song that reminds us to celebrate our journey which gained feature in Billboard and Rock & Blues Muse.
Blooming out of a time of change and embracing the thrills of new, fresh experiences, “Right On Time” is one half of Juliana Riccardi’s The Nashville Session recordings, a project born out of what Riccardi defined a ‘perfect mixture of risk and preparation.’ Co-produced and mixed by Nick Bullock, a producer-engineer from Neal Capellino’s The Doghouse Studio (Dolly Parton, Allison Kraus, Sheryl Crow), The Nashville Session singles were recorded live across an eye-opening, three-day trip bustling with creativity which gave Riccardi a groundbreaking studio vocal performance.
Beneath its gentle exterior, “Right On Time” is narrated with the confidence gained through hindsight and time passing – as its lyrics say, “You’re right on time... So, get out there, and please enjoy the ride.” Riccardi crafts an older presence looking over her younger self’s shoulder, reassuring herself and others that there is no such thing as wasted time.
YOU ARE A FULL CUP
YOU ARE A FULL CUP
‘Full Cup’ was written at a local coffee shop about starting the day on a positive note and it blossomed into something more— a song about perseverance, self love and romance with life. The song spent a few weeks on Spotify’s Healin’ Blues playlist and the music video was featured on Country Music Televsion’s All-In-One-Spot website. On these vintage white ceramic mugs, I’ve printed lyrics from the song along with the sentiment: YOU ARE A FULL CUP. I want you to start your day right, knowing and feeling you are full. I hope you love ‘em! —Juliana
