Noelle Toland shares “Sun Will Rise”

Based in Nashville, Tennessee, Noelle Toland is a singer-songwriter on a mission to bring old-school country music into the modern day. Originally hailing from the small town of North Plains in Oregon, the artist is testament to the fact that the genre’s appeal stretches far beyond just the deep South.

Returning to her roots, she’s crafted her own take on the country music style, lifted by her soulful vocals and filled with instantly memorable melodic writing. After releasing her single “Prove Your Value” in 2020, she’s since linked up with legendary country artists to work on her debut EP titled The Sun Will Rise.

Capturing the classic country music charm with traditional instrumentation such as pedal steel and guitar work from founding member of the Stax Records house band and Booker T. & the M.G.’s, Steve Cooper, with her latest music, Noelle Toland pays a touching homage to the artists that inspired her during her upbringing such as Trisha Yearwood and Faith Hill. “Hopefully this record, which I’ve long envisioned, inspires people to take chances, be bold, and place bets on themselves, because that is the only thing that has gotten me through the ups and downs,” she shares.

Bringing us her latest release, she shares her new single titled “Sun Will Rise”, a stunning country pop ballad that offers a timeless sound wrapped up in a modern style. Carried by her soaring vocal work and moving writing, with her latest single, Noelle Toland offers a ray of sunshine in a world that’s often consumed by fear and anxiety.

Commenting on the new single, the artist offers, “I began writing this song in the middle of quarantine, whilst stuck at home in LA, and I was trying to make sense of the worldwide chaos and upheaval. The imagery of a sun and moon trading places kept hitting me and I had a novel realisation that sadness can’t prevail forever, that there is hope, that the “moon will pass by, and the sun will rise.”

Adding, “This song was a catharsis for me to write and it continues to be one that I now can listen to, wherein I’m reminded that everything will be OK. This song is a love letter written to the people that put one foot in front of the other, the ones who keep on spinning.”
