The song follows her duet with Vance Foy
Capitol Records Nashville’s Caylee Hammack delivers “Breaking Dishes,” a ballad of a woman burned. Co-written by Hammack, Mikey Reaves and Gordie Sampson, the track sees Hammack as a wrecking ball poised to swing, perfectly illustrating the brewing storm just before ending a relationship, with her fervent scorched-earth vocals coupled with a plucky and poignant melody.
“Breaking Dishes is a sonic ‘eye for an eye.’ Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, as they say,” explained Hammack. “I don’t make a habit of throwing things, no, but I wanted to make a song for scorned women to vent to. It fell out of the sky and into our laps one day in 2018 in a writer’s room, now six years later, it has found its avenue to be shared with the world. Here we are, breaking dishes and breaking up.”
After teasing across her socials, the songstress dropped a visualizer accompanying the new track, with Hammack destroying a perfectly curated dining set in an East Nashville house, available to watch now.
Recently, Hammack tapped Northern Irish singer-songwriter Foy Vance to feature in her latest song “The Hill,” paired with a behind-the-scenes visualizer recording the song together. Vance weaves his robust vocals between Hammack’s fiddly trills, delivering a fiery duet illustrating two lovers intertwined in a war of love.
