January 14th, 2022 (Nashville, TN): Brenda Cay releases her heartfelt new single "Talk About Nothing" today on all streaming and download platforms.
“My husband and I laugh because we have the same conversation every day about what we want to eat and I told him, “There’s no-one else I’d rather talk about nothing with.” That was the inspiration for my new single, “Talk About Nothing.” It's about being with that special someone that you are just so comfortable around that you can talk about anything - even those mundane things that add up to nothing. The chorus is playful and sexy with a twist. “When we turn out the lights and kiss, he’s the one I want to talk about nothing with.” - Brenda Cay
Brenda Cay’s newest ballad “Talk About Nothing” is an anthem for all lovers who don’t need words to express their genuine feelings for each other. The instrumentals consist of an acoustic guitar paired with steady drums, which features an active electric guitar over top that brings the song to life. Brenda’s vocals are honest and clear which help bring out the sincerity within the song's lyrics. Verses such as “we don’t need to say too much, sometimes it’s baby what’s for lunch” and “we can have a debate and never fight” show how true love shouldn’t involve too much work, and just be filled with conversation through connection. Cay’s “Talk About Nothing” reminds us that no matter how long you’ve been with your partner, everyday should be just as easy as the one before.
Biography: Brenda’s passion for music has caused her to push the envelope more than once. Whether it was sneaking a listen to her big brother’s records when he wasn’t around or getting pulled over by the police for wearing her sunglasses at night with the windows down and the tunes cranked, music has always been a way that Brenda discovers new ideas and connects to her feelings. To her own enjoyment (and the dismay of others around her), she’ll practice the same line to a song over and over or have one song streaming while singing another. While this might seem weird to a normal person, this plays perfectly into her everyday life as a singer/songwriter.
Brenda focuses on Country music and her songs are crafted with subtle hints of pop, rock, and R&B which reflect influences from artists Kenny Chesney, Terri Clark and Sara Evans. She states, “Sometimes there’s something deep in my heart that I need to share and other times there’s a shot of whiskey begging me to tell it’s story with a fun melody.” Escaping the stresses of daily life and having fun are common themes, but she is unafraid to tackle more serious topics. Her songs are relatable, diverse and she weaves them like a true country music storyteller.
Brenda had no idea that it would be her songwriting that would forge the path for her to sign with Heart Songs Records in 2020. After signing, she released her "Fragile Like a Bomb" EP which exclusively premiered on Pro Country. It garnered 12 licensing deals and had two tracks featured on Apple Music Hot Tracks (Country). The EP currently has over 1.9 million Spotify streams. She kicked 2021 off strong with two follow-up singles, “Alone With You,” and “Wherever You Are,” which have over 650K streams and the corresponding videos have 100K views.
Brenda was nominated for Song of the Year in 2019 at the Josie Awards for her single, “Joe,” in the Americana/Bluegrass category. She is a member of ASCAP, AMA & The Trop Rock Music Association.
Brenda says, “I’m ready to serve up my songs to the world and will continue working with other artists and bands on their song material. I love to engage with my fans and hope that my listeners will get to know me through my songs and enjoy the ride with me as a writer and artist. Just remember not to wear your sunglasses at night.”
