Lia Caton Drowns Out Heartbreak With New Single “Turn The Silence Off”
Award-winning artist Lia Caton, who splits her time between Naperville, IL and Nashville, TN, rocks out and amplifies the sound of heartbreak with Turn the Silence Off, available now on Amazon, Apple, Pandora, Spotify, and all major online retailers.
“Turn The Silence Off was written by Chicagoland writer Anita Lin, a longtime friend and co-writer,” says Lia. “When I first heard this song, I knew I had to record it. Not only were the lyrics haunting but the sound was just powerful and really brings out the heartbreaking emotions of the story. I first met Anita in 2004 at NSAI (Nashville Songwriters Association International). We became fast friends and co-writers. Without Anita’s inspiration and encouragement over the years, I wouldn’t still be doing this. Besides it being a great song, I wanted to honor Anita and her craft by recording it.”
Produced by Sean Giovanni (John Legend, Tim McGraw, Big & Rich), Turn The Silence Off takes listeners on a journey of love gone wrong, regret, and trying to fill the void when someone walks away from a relationship. Lia’s powerful vocals shine throughout and bring the listener right into rocking forefront of the pain that lives in these lyrics.
Turn The Silence Off Lyric Preview:
Turn up the radio
Find a new club to go to
Anywhere but alone
I’m trying to turn the silence off
I wanna take back all your tears
“I’m sorry,” ringing in my ears
Turn it so loud that I can’t hear
I’m trying to turn the silence off
Lia broke out onto scene with her 2021 single Hell or High Water, which landed on the official Academy of Country Music’s New Music Friday playlist. As the first of four singles to do so, Hell or High Water put Caton in the company of artists like Reba McEntire, Miranda Lambert, and Dolly Parton. Hell or High Water was also recently nominated for “Female Country Single of the Year” for the 8th Annual Josie Music Awards, where Caton took home the award for “Vocalist of The Year” (multi-genre). The music video for this fiery debut premiered around the globe in over 40 million homes via The Country Network.
Her debut album, Someone Like You, currently available on all major online retailers, launched Aug. 5. 2022. Tracks from the project received airplay on the internal syndicate radio show New Country Brew and coverage from the Cowboy Channel and RFD-TV. Caton was also spotlighted on NBC’s “Today in Nashville” in Music City. Lia shared her first video from her Someone Like You project via a premiere of The Only Thing Missing Is You in Digital Journal.

About Lia Caton
Lia Caton is a tenacious country artist and songwriter hailing from Naperville, IL outside of Chicago. Her kind heart and strong spirit are wildly apparent in each of her projects as she infuses her mission to heal, inspire, and advocate for causes close to home. As a child, Lia witnessed her father struggle with addiction and homelessness. Overcoming childhood adversity, this soulful songwriter moved from a suburb of Boston to the “Windy City” to pursue a career in music. Inspired by the sultry vocal tones of Bonnie Raitt and Wynonna Judd, Caton’s signature sound is raw and recognizably intimate as she narrates her own human experience through original songs. This activist released her debut single Spare Some Time in 2020, proving that connecting with and valuing people of all walks of life provides a sense of community that was missing during quarantine. Beyond her homeless and child services outreach, Lia also greatly values the work of those in the rescue pet community. She has experienced the joy a rescue pet can bring to a family firsthand with the rescue dogs and cat that are members of the Caton household. Beyond the stage, this mother and wife enjoys the beauty and growth that one can discover in nature on horse trails and ski slopes. This fall, she’ll be premiering her next release Hell or High Water, a co-write with Benji Harris (previous hits in the CMT Top 20 countdown) with production by Sean Giovanni (John Legend, Tim McGraw, Big & Rich).
