WHIPPED CREAM Drops “stranger” & Announces Debut Album ‘HOME WAS ALWAYS ME’
Following the groundbreaking, tone-setting single “it’s time to go home,” WHIPPED CREAM unveils a new track, entitled “stranger.” The song announces her official debut album HOME WAS ALWAYS ME set for release April 30 via Monstercat.
“Everyone knows the feeling: locking eyes with a stranger at a club, a festival, anywhere — and feeling something impossible to explain. ‘stranger’ is an anthem for that electricity. It works in the club, in the car, or in your headphones alone at night. It’s instant connection captured in three minutes” – WHIPPED CREAM.
The Canadian producer and vocalist, who is Caroline Cecil, is known to provide a masterclass in storytelling through dynamic, expressive vocals and a multitude of house & techno soundscapes as heard on her previous EP releases Careline (2025), is this real? (2024), Someone You Can Count On (2023) and Who Is Whipped Cream? (2020). For her debut full-length studio album, HOME WAS ALWAYS ME contains boldly cinematic dance music, as WHIPPED CREAM strives to encapsulate raw emotion grounded in the human experience, covering universal themes and connecting with audiences across the board.
“People say ‘be yourself,’ but the moment you do, they project onto you. This album is about choosing yourself anyway,” she explains, further describing the project as “a modern retelling of an ancient idea that people are not defined by the stories written about them, but by the truth they choose to live.” – WHIPPED CREAM
At a surface level, the album appears to show WHIPPED CREAM’s strength, but it actually details her authenticity. She utilizes the Biblical figure Eve, widely portrayed as a sinner, and re-examines her as an archetype of truth, a woman bold enough to never betray herself. WHIPPED CREAM hopes to convey that our true selves aren’t lost; they’re just buried. She created HOME WAS ALWAYS ME for anyone who’s ever been misunderstood while evolving. “Stranger” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
