At just 22, Boston-born, LA-based artist Carissa Summer Rose is emerging as a bold new voice in the world of pop and alternative music—fearless, genre-blending, and refreshingly real. With a sound shaped by icons like Aretha Franklin, Shania Twain, and Frank Sinatra, Carissa’s work is deeply personal yet universally resonant, grounded in messages of self-love, equality, and unapologetic individuality. Her latest single “Scatterbrain“ is a vibrant anthem for anyone who’s ever felt misunderstood for thinking a little differently. Inspired by Carissa’s own journey navigating life with ADHD, the track turns everyday frustrations—like losing keys or forgetting an ID—into moments of raw honesty and empowerment. “Scatterbrain” is more than a catchy, genre-fluid tune; it’s a reclamation. It’s about learning not to shame yourself for your wiring, but to embrace it, adapt, and see the beauty in your so-called chaos. With vulnerability, wit, and conviction, Carissa flips the narrative: what some see as flaws, she frames as a superpower. “The world wouldn’t evolve without people living outside the box,” she says, and “Scatterbrain” pulses with that same forward-thinking energy. It’s a song that invites you to embrace yourself wholeheartedly, even the fragmented parts of yourself, and to celebrate the unique way your mind functions—even if it deviates from societal norms.
