Nashville-based artist Sadie Campbell is releasing her first full-length album, Metamorphosis on Oct. 25, 2024, and says that the album “has a little bit of everything.” The songs explore “anxiety, loss and life’s questions” but do so with “love and confidence.” 

She recently released new single “Saved”, alongside a video is out now. It is a “deeply personal excerpt from the album,” written about “religious deconstruction.” Though Campbell has a background in church music, “she no longer finds the Christian church’s doctrine fits around what she has to say.” 

Campbell shares:

Not only do I have this need to people please, many years of my life were spent in the church as a ‘good Christian’ girl that didn’t ask questions or speak up. I am scared to open this can of worms, so to speak, but I chose to put this song on the record for the people out there that also have questioned their faith, questioned the church, been wronged by the church, had to reprogram their minds and hearts after leaving. It’s for them. For us.

Beginning in a small-town Canadian choir, Campbell made her way to Brooklyn, New York, before settling down in Nashville, Tennessee. Since then, she’s signed a publishing deal with Park Avenue West, and her next step is this full-length album.

Metamorphosis describes her experience “crossing through a dark spell ” which she documented with producers Stuart Cameron and Peter Fusco on her 2021 EP The Darkroom. For Metamorphosis, the trio finally met in-person for the first time to collaborate at The Bath House in Ontario, Canada.

Campbell says:

I saw a quote when starting to write this album that it said, ‘The thing you are most scared to write about, write that. There are songs about sadness, loneliness, anxiety, my experience leaving the Christian church and questioning my faith, starting over in my 30s,  people pleasing and family dynamics and the beauty of growing older.
