“United States” by Anita Carter: Soul Shaped by Silence and Vast Horizons
Anita Carter’s new soul release, “United States,” is a deeply reflective piece born from a life shaped by endurance, observation, and extraordinary landscapes. Raised in the Australian interior alongside her father, a gold detectorist, Carter learned patience, resilience, and the art of listening long before she found her voice in music.
Her experiences with First Nations communities instilled a profound respect for land, continuity, and identity—elements that echo through the emotional depth of this track. A devoted reader and disciplined spirit, she later ventured to Antarctica at just eighteen, where isolation and vast silence reshaped her perspective on life and art.
Blending heartfelt Soul with quiet introspection, “United States” feels both intimate and expansive, capturing Carter’s journey through solitude, discovery, and unwavering purpose in a sound that lingers long after the final note.
