Texas-based singer-songwriter Melissa Carper reflects on a relationship that's gone cold on the yearning, stone cold country "Back When," the latest release from her forthcoming album Daddy's Country Gold (out on March 19th).

"A lot of my songs are based on my real life experiences and with 'Back When' every single word of that was lived and true," Carper tells Wide Open Country. "I started writing it a bit after a breakup while longing for the relationship I once had with someone--that is, the beginning of the relationship when we were in love and everything was wonderful. It was written with a hopeful desire that things could be as they once were, and though that never happened, I feel like this song does have that hopeful air that maybe 'back when' could happen again, for any relationship that has lost that spark."

Carper is a founding member of the band The Carper Family. She's also a member of Arkansas four-piece Sad Daddy and founded roots duo Buffalo Gals with girlfriend Rebecca Patek.
