Singer-songwriter Ryan Brown has released her latest single, “Carousel,” a lively and metaphorical tune that compares relationships to the whirlwind experience of riding a carousel.

Despite the challenges faced, she remains optimistic, singing, “Someday I’ll find someone and we’ll ride this carousel.”
