In a press statement, Carlile said she finds spending time with herself \u201cnot just a lonely, but a painfully boring thing to do,\u201d instead preferring to \u201cdouble, triple, and quadruple down on co-dependency,\u201d which she believes \u201cisn\u2019t really that unhealthy\u201d except for \u201c12-step programs and junior high school relationships.\u201d<\/p>\n

As such, Carlile says her definition of\u00a0learning to \u201cbe alone\u201d is actually \u201cbeing alone in a crowded room.\u201d She continued, \u201cPeople want to be together in silence more than we allow in our time. It\u2019s falling deeply in love with the car wheels on a gravel road. The possibility of the visitor. The \u2018not being alone-ness\u2019 of it all\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Carlile added that while \u201ctogetherness\u201d has \u201cgiven me everything I love about being alive\u201d \u2014 including her band, wife, children, and relationships with Joni Mitchell and Elton John \u2014 she must \u201cuntether\u201d because she doesn\u2019t want to do it. \u201cI don\u2019t want to return to myself,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd that\u2019s why I will.\u201d<\/p>\n

On that note, the lead single, \u201cReturning to Myself,\u201d describes Carlile\u2019s turn toward introspection, as she sings, \u201cIs it evolving, turning inward?\/ Oh, what an easy way to be\/ Only kneeling at the altar of\/ The great and mighty me.\u201d<\/p>\n

This weekend, Carlile and her band will play a three-night run at Colorado\u2019s famed Red Rocks Amphitheatre (get tickets here<\/a>). A press release promises there are more tour dates to be announced.<\/p>\n

Returning to Myself follows Carlile\u2019s joint project with Elton John, Who Believes in Angels?<\/a>, one of the best albums<\/a> released in April. Her most recent solo album,\u00a0In These Silent Days<\/a>, dropped in 2021.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
