Got us singing every line, lighters high
Swinging back and forth like a wave on fire
Drinking to our favorite songs
With those hot country nights like no other
Ain’t no thing as a bad summer
Returning to her country roots after premiering with a pop-country sound, Karissa is following the road paved by her country music heroes. Prior to this original release, Karissa highlighted her love of country music with The Acoustic Sessions. It included covers of “Maybe It Was Memphis,” “Who I Am” and “You Can’t Make Old Friends” featuring Johnny Gates. Karissa is excited to be establishing her most authentic self as an artist with “Bad Summer” and looks forward to releasing more original music later this summer.
