Chart-Topping Singer Eileen Carey Shares an Uplifting Message in “This Is Where”

Award-winning country-pop singer-songwriter Eileen Carey continues to rack up successes in the independent music world with the release of her latest single, “This Is Where.” “This Is Where” is a positive spin on a classic tale of heartbreak, where two people gradually come to realize they have grown apart. While this could have been a sad tale of two people failing to work through their relationship, it’s a positive commentary on the strength it takes to move on and the wisdom gleaned from a relationship into a new chapter in life.

Eileen Carey’s body of work is known throughout the music world for its success on radio stations. Her music has topped the New Music Weekly Indie Top 40 chart numerous times, including a high of #1. It also reached #5 on their Mainstream Top 40 chart. Such a body of work makes her one of the most recognized independent artists in the world of country-pop music today. With a base in Altadena, California, Carey’s developed a sound she refers to as “West Coast Pop Country,” a sound that’s unmistakably positive in its outlook.

This combination of positivity and relatability has been the key to the success of previous singles such as “Land with You” and “Good Bad Girl” receiving heavy rotation on the radio. They have been well-received for their empowering qualities, paired with the catchy dance beats that accompany them. Carey’s accessible and touching qualities have been the keys to her major recognition throughout the country’s music scene, especially in the year 2025, where she has been awarded the AC/Hot AC Breakthrough Artist award by the New Music Awards, as well as the Independent Music Network’s Entertainer of the Year.

Carey is just as successful as a performer, having shared the stage with other legendary performers such as Don McLean, Rita Coolidge, Jefferson Starship, and The Motels, bringing her own energy to the stage, reminiscent of the combination of Gretchen Wilson and Miranda Lambert. Carey is also a beauty ambassador for Joe Blasco Cosmetics, as well as the owner of the popular blog “The Music Mom.” Having won over 25 awards throughout her illustrious career, performing at nearly 80 notable venues, Eileen Carey is proving that authenticity and positivity are still major players in the country-pop genre.
