Country Artist Jillian Cardarelli Releases Debut EP & Powerful New Single “What’s It Gonna Take”

May 3, 2022

Country Artist / Songwriter Jillian Cardarelli releases her self-titled debut EP and powerful new single “What’s It Gonna Take” with lyric video. The knockout ballad was written by Jennifer Fielder and Adam Wood. The EP was produced by award-winning producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Alex Kline, who has collaborated with and produced albums for Reba, Tenille Arts, Ronnie Dunn, Terri Clark and Mitchell Tenpenny. 

In addition, Kline co-wrote and produced Tenille Arts‘ critically acclaimed album, Love, Heartbreak & Everything in Between which was the first No. 1 country radio single to be written, performed and produced by an all female team. Kline was also recently listed at No. 6 on the Billboard Country Producers chart.

“This is such a statement, powerhouse song that I knew I had to record it,” said Jillian Cardarelli. “You can feel the depth of the struggle to move past the heartache in the lyrics that so many people can relate to. There are heartbreak songs and then there’s just heartbroken. There is something about this song that takes the listeners on a journey of desperation to leave the past behind and trying to move forward. We all wish we could snap our fingers and make things better, but this song reminds us that ‘what it’s gonna take’ is… time.”

Cardarelli landed some early reviews and press as the single debuted on WSM’s Coffee, Country & Cody | Circle TV yesterday morning along with a sneak peak of the Official Music Video for “What’s It Gonna Take” that will be released on CMT.com on April 15th. In addition, Taste of Country did an article and premiered the Lyric Video.

Embraced by music insiders, her latest singles “Dropped” and “If You Had a Heart,” both had support from Apple Music, Spotify and Pandora. Her inspirational single “Strong,” featuring Charles Esten, was named one of 2020’s Most Powerful Songs by American Songwriter Magazine and “I Never Do This” was named Best New Country Song by Rolling Stone (October 2019) — all on the EP.

Originally from a small town in Massachusetts, Cardarelli moved to Nashville to attend Belmont University and immediately immersed herself in the country music scene. Her stunning vocals, songwriting and girl next door quality has positioned her as an emerging star amongst her contemporaries.  You can expect big things from this artist in 2022 and beyond.

The EP and single “What’s It Gonna Take” are available now on all streaming platforms and her lyric video is available on her YouTube Channel.
