Kerrigan Barry Shares New Single “Phase”: Raw, real, and unapologetically reckless, Kerrigan Barry was born with a fire in her heart, stoked by rock ‘n’ roll in her bones. The Cleveland, Ohio native (now a Nashville Resident) found catharsis and truth in writing lyrics and melodies after watching Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band Live as a 5-year-old kid. Quite possibly the only 4th grader in her generation to have The Rolling Stones’ “Tattoo You” on their iPod shuffle, Kerrigan began her lifelong love affair with music earlier than most. It has since proven to be the most beautifully intoxicating relationship she ever imagined experiencing.
Barry was selected as a finalist in the 35th Annual American Songwriter Song Competition, praised for her raw approach to putting pen to paper. Her fans have been anxiously waiting for her to drop her new music. It should be noted that Barry is one of Nashville’s most sought-after managers, graphic designers, and creative directors. She is one of a kind, authentic, and driven to succeed.
The singer-songwriter has also been featured on Pandora: Fresh Cuts and Pandora: Tunesmiths and Troubadours.
With spitfire lyrics, “I’m back in black eyeliner / I’ll probably steal your lighter / Just sick enough to get an inner lip tattoo / My parents used to say/ I’d grow out of this one day / Just reminiscing, shit / What if it isn’t a phase?”, Barry brings us back to the sounds of early 2000s teenage nostalgia, giving us the modern Avril Lavigne fantasy we’ve always wanted.
