Ceara Cavalieri Puts Her Ex on Blast in “Bad Thing”

To quote Taylor Swift's "Vigilante Shit," "Don’t get sad, get even.” When someone does you dirty, sometimes revenge is the best medicine. Ceara Cavalieri’s latest release, “Bad Thing,” drips with attitude and it is all about courageously facing a person who did you wrong while scheming possible retaliation.

In "Bad Thing," Cavalieri’s fiery vocals pounce atop bold beats, creating a penetrating piece that hits you straight in the gut. The rising artist is unapologetically telling it like it is and we are here for that in-your-face honesty. The single was written when the artist found out a girl she had been dating was cheating on her, resulting in a momentary moment of heartbreak and a passionate, scornful cheeky pop-rock offering.

Southern California native Cavalieri’s songs fiercely fuse rock and alternative pop. As a UCLA graduate with a degree in psychology, who now takes on music full-time, you can really see her smarts come through in masterful lyrics that are packed with wit and punchy, raw honesty. It's a sentiment she makes clear in "Bad Thing," delivering an ode to anyone dealing with painful betrayal and making it clear that she's not one to be messed with.
