This song has always hit close to home for me. It’s about feeling lost and searching for connection, something I’ve wrestled with in my own journey of questioning, overcoming, and finding my voice. Avril Lavigne’s raw emotion inspired me to bring my own take to this classic.

With its soaring melody and heartfelt lyrics, this cover allowed me to dive deep into the vulnerability and strength it takes to keep going when the path isn’t clear. I hope it resonates with you as much as it does with me. 💙

Listen, share, and let me know how this version makes you feel.

I'm with You - Avril Lavigne Cover

“Roses on a Barstool” is a slow-burning country blues ballad built on gospel-inspired piano, soulful electric guitar, and emotionally raw vocals. It captures the quiet ache of sitting alone at the end of a long night—surrounded by smoke, silence, and the kind of heartbreak that doesn’t shout.

For fans of Beth Hart, Bonnie Raitt, and Chris Stapleton, this song blends Southern storytelling with cinematic depth and unfiltered vulnerability.

Genre: Country Blues / Americana
Themes: Heartbreak, barroom loneliness, gospel undertones
Mood: Slow, atmospheric, emotionally reflective
