Just in time for International Women’s Month, “Right On Time,” is the latest single by Americana singer-songwriter Juliana Riccardi
The song is a warm, comforting country-folk track in which the artist commits to growth and vulnerability. Accompanied by a distinctive roots Americana sound with soul and folk influences, “Right On Time” emerges as an uplifting and reassuring manifesto to owning your choices and having the confidence to create your own path, being empowered enough to start fresh at any point. Riccardi crafts an older presence looking over her younger self’s shoulder, reassuring herself and others that there is no such thing as wasted time. The track celebrates being a little indulgent and cultivating a romance with ourselves – one that forgives, but never foregoes our own happiness; a relationship that provides comfort and guidance in following our dreams and intuition.
“‘Right On Time’ reminds you that you’re not too late or too lost; and that you can make a turn whenever you want. I wrote this song at the top of that year as a mantra to challenge my old, limiting beliefs.” – Juliana Riccardi
Led by guitar in a grounding, tender cinematic display, the track feels similar to walking away into the sunset, a happy ending that looks onto new beginnings with a newfound awareness. Blooming out of a time of change and embracing the thrills of new, fresh experiences, “Right On Time” is one half of Juliana Riccardi’s The Nashville Session recordings, a project born out of what Riccardi defined a ‘perfect mixture of risk and preparation.’ Produced by Nick Bullock from Neal Capellino’s The Doghouse Studio (Dolly Parton, Allison Kraus, Sheryl Crow), the two singles were recorded across an eye-opening, three-day trip bustling with creativity which gave Riccardi a groundbreaking studio vocal performance.
Embracing risks, changes, and new horizons, Juliana Riccardi is committed to being “Right On Time” – taking the long way, allowing herself to get a little bit lost, and keeping trust in her craft and her path – in a stunning display of self-awareness, sensibility and confidence.
