Music Legend Rita Coolidge Returns to Her Musical Roots on Safe in the Arms of Time.
Along with Coolidge, the luminous new album features the songwriting talents of Graham Nash, Chris Stapleton, Stan Lynch, and Keb’ Mo’.
One of music’s most enduring voices and composers, Rita Coolidge released her dramatic and poignant new solo album, Safe in the Arms of Time, on May 4th on Blue Élan Records. The album marks the two-time Grammy winner’s return to songwriting, and as she did in her acclaimed 2015 memoir, Delta Lady, she drew inspiration for her new material from her personal journey. Coolidge, who co-wrote three of the album’s 12 wondrous cuts says,
“I’ve written so many songs assuming a role like an actor, but this time I got to write from experience. This is the best record I’ve ever done. I’m extremely proud of it.”

“An intimate and fascinating autobiographical journey into Rita’s personal story of survival as well as her professional emergence as an influential force amid the iconic music and musicians the built the foundation of the 60’s – 70’s pop/rock universe in American culture.”
“Many male rock stars of the Sixties and Seventies have released memoirs, presenting their version of the time as one of debauchery, pleasure and sexual privilege. When the era’s women tell their stories, though, a darker side emerges. Coolidge tells of her musical success but also the indignities she and others suffered at the hands of some of the era’s greatest talents. Also intriguing — her claim that she was denied credit for writing one of the most recognizable musical passages in rock history, the piano coda to ‘Layla.’”
