Sorry Mom & Dad

There’s a word that comes up whenever Liddy Clark talks about her music – “connection.” A confessional storyteller with an old soul, her songwriter roots intertwine with a breezy west coast chill vibe grounded by earthy tones. Now with her first full-length album being finalized, she continues to build connections in a desperate world. A Taylor Guitar artist, Clark’s music has been highlighted by Rolling Stone, Radio Disney, CMT, Hollywood Life, and iHeart Radio. She’s been tapped an “Artist to Watch" by AXS, Thrive Global, Celebuzz, PopCulturalist and named in PopStar!’s “On The Radar” series. Connection is such a strong element of her personality that even The Recording Academy (GRAMMYs) invited her to make a presentation this past year to the President and Board regarding how The Recording Academy can connect with the Gen Z generation. Currently based in Los Angeles, the Plano, Texas native relocated with her family to South Florida (Parkland), just before first grade. This was a pivotal move for Liddy, as theatre is very important in the area and the move put her in a position to grow up on the stage. Inspired by artistic family members like her cousin, Drew Womack (formerly Sons of the Desert and writer of Kenny Chesney’s first number one hit “She’s Got it All”), she amassed the resume of a seasoned entertainer. With the release of new music on the horizon, Clark is now living that mantra. Collaborating with producer Mark Siegel at Dubway West Studios, and working around the challenges of the pandemic by recording remotely from her apartment in Los Angeles while Siegel orchestrated production in real-time from quarantine in Nashville, Liddy embraced a vivid sound that fuses the introspection and expression of a seasoned songwriter with a mellow vibe creating a whole new kind of connection. “I’m really excited because I feel like this collection of songs is very personal to me, and they’re all songs I’ve written within the past year or two,” she says.

Sorry mom & dad if the decisions I make are poor
But I’ve got a taste for tequila & some weed in my sock drawer
I’m not trying to get back at you & you didn’t raise me wrong
I’m just tryna figure out this world & where the hell I belong

I’m sorry mom & dad for bringing that last guy home
& not listening when you said that he was an asshole
I know you don’t believe me when I say it won’t happen again
You know I’ve got a habit of choosing narcissistic men

I just wanna make you proud
Get married by the time I’m thirty, have life figured out
All I ever wanted was to tell you I made it
So sorry mom & dad if I fell short of expectations

Sorry mom & dad I keep on asking you for cash
But unpaid gigs are all I’ve got while I still have class
& I promise I’ll get my degree, cause if that’s what’ll make you happy
I’ll write papers til my fingers bleed

I just wanna make you proud
Have a sold-out show in my hometown & you standing in the crowd
All I ever wanted was to tell you I made it
So sorry mom & dad if I fell short of expectations

I’m sorry cause I know the bar you set for me was higher
& when you had a kid you weren’t expecting a wildfire
But one day I’ll put my flames out & give you both a rest
It may not seem like it right now, but I’m trying my best

Sorry mom & dad that this is kind of a dumb song
Cause you’ll tell me that you love me, even if I’m living wrong
