After vanishing from the music scene for over a decade, Gavin Washburn resurfaced in 2026 with Caramel Carousel, a seductive, potent return from a life lived off the rails. These songs don’t chase the myth of sex, drugs, and rock and roll, they’re first-hand accounts, confessions carved out of wreckage and survival by one of rock's most compelling emerging artists.

Caramel Carousel blends rock, pop, and country into something glossy and capricious with moods that vacillate between seductive and sinister. You'll find yourself enjoying the tight production, mesmerized by intoxicating hooks and melodies and suddenly you get the sense you're listening to lyrics torn from the pages of a diary you were never supposed to see. This is a new form of rock music for those who've lost time, burned bridges, and are still standing. Stream Caramel Carousel on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Pandora.
