Pop star, singer-songwriter, and powerhouse vocalist Chloe Stroll joins Jrodconcerts for a candid conversation about her journey to her debut album, Bloom in the Break. We dive into Chloe's deep love for Whitney Houston and how the iconic star, alongside Celine Dion, inspired her to pursue her "big ballads" despite not having a professional musician in the family. Chloe shares stories of being "born a performer," trading Disney costumes for a microphone at her parents' dinner parties, and the connection she found in bringing people together through music. Chloe reveals the daunting task of writing over 70 songs and the process of paring them down to the dozen tracks that make up her full-spectrum album, Bloom in the Break. The album showcases her gift for "incisive, yet compassionate lyrics and her strong voice," offering comfort and relatability through tracks like the spectral “Thin Air” and the grand ballad “Home.” We also discuss her personal evolution, including the surprising pivot to music after completing business school and embarking on another career path in 2020. Chloe opens up about life's major milestones—her marriage to Olympic medalist Scotty James in 2023 (and their relationship story) and navigating motherhood in music after having her baby in 2024. Hear how Chloe uses "music to heal" and how she translated real-time emotion—even terrifying moments, as depicted in "Run"—into her art. Tune in for an honest look at the making of an artist committed to translating life's journey with candor, confidence, and grace. __ Uber Eats: Get up to 40% off Halloween essentials.
