Preorder Caroline Spence’s new album, Heart Go Wild, and make plans to join us in the record shop on Saturday, September 20th at 4:30 PM for a special instore performance and album signing! We’re thrilled to be able to host Caroline and celebrate her new record with her. You can read more about our event with Caroline on our site here.

Five albums into her critically-acclaimed songwriting career, Caroline Spence is giving herself permission to break the rules. That untamed spirit runs throughout Heart Go Wild. Co-produced by Spence, Mark Campbell and Peter Groenwald, the album balances craft with creative experimentation, making room for pop anthems ("Fun at Parties"), emotionally bare ballads ("Confront It"), beat-driven explorations of self ("Soft Animal"), and left-field influences. It also reestablishes Spence as an independent artist, arriving after her multi-year run of albums with Rounder Records. She makes the most of that freedom, exploring new techniques in the studio and new directions in her songs. The result is her most imaginative interpretation of modern-day roots music to date, reaching beyond the swooning, soft-hued Americana of her earlier work to showcase just how colorful and wide-ranging her artistry can be.

Heart Go Wild is available to preorder here on black vinyl LP & CD. All preorders will be signed by Caroline herself (either in person at her event or in advance of shipping, for those purchasing for mail order.)

Preorders for local, store pickup will be available at Grimey’s on Saturday, September 20th.

Preorders for mail order will ship out from Grimey’s after Saturday, September 20th.

*Preorders for store pickup will be held for three months after release date. Please pick up your Heart Go Wild preorder no later than December 20th, 2025.
