NASHVILLE, TENN. – Nashville based singer/songwriter Noelle Toland’s new single You’re An Arrow serves as a tender reminder that it’s okay to feel a little lost sometimes, but to follow your heart and live for what’s important. This song is available on all digital streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, and more.
Following the success of her previously released singles as well as her debut EP, The Moon Will Pass By, Noelle Toland continues to reach into the depths of our souls in a beautiful way with her new release You’re An Arrow. As humans, it is in our nature to overthink. Our hearts and minds become so easily swayed and overwhelmed by our circumstances that sometimes we forget to just live in the moment. Noelle was experiencing similar emotions in her own life. While living in Los Angeles, a sweet note from her dad including the poem “On Children” by Kahlil Gibran, helped inspire the message of the song. “This song is about a girl asking her mom for advice, asking her why nothing is working out for her, and why she feels completely lost and alone and is at her wits end,” says Noelle. “The mom responds with wisdom as she tells her not to ‘cling to the things you want to last’ and ‘don’t get caught up in the trap, ’cause you’re on a path’… ‘you were meant to fly…high and low…’ and ultimately ‘you’re an arrow.’” When our hearts are longing for answers and clarity and we begin to lose sight of what matters most, this song serves as a reminder that no matter how far you wander, you are never lost.
Written by Noelle Toland and Tyler Winther and produced by Philippe Bronchtein (Chase Rice’s utility instrumentalist, playing pedal steel, banjo, dobro, and keyboards for Pony Bradshaw and Mickey Guyton, among others), You’re An Arrow is a reflection of how people, no matter their age or circumstances, experience difficult and complex emotions. Maybe they set goals they haven’t yet reached, aren’t in a career they are passionate about, or are looking for a love that will last. Whatever the situation, this single will touch the hearts of its listeners. With a floating ethereal combination of Noelle’s vocals and the gorgeous instrumentals, You’re An Arrow is exactly what you need to hear if you’re dealing with big feelings and life changes.
With numerous singles under her belt, Noelle has received critically-acclaimed praise in numerous publications, participated in CMA Music Festival, been nominated for Country Evolution’s Artist to Watch in 2023, and received national and international airplay in Australia, Europe, Ireland, London, Switzerland, and the U.K.

About Noelle Toland: This passionately captivating country artist modernizes and personalizes old-school country music into her own sound and niche. While many assume the genre’s audience is limited exclusively to the south, Noelle Toland, who hails from a 2,000-person vineyard town in North Plains, Oregon is proof that that simply isn’t true. As an only child, Noelle used to perform around the house for her Wheaton Terrier, Max, just dancing around and being silly. But upon joining kindergarten choir at the budding age of five, she already knew exactly where she was meant to be. She is an accomplished actress with roles in several films, movies and TV shows including a stint in Criminal Minds. She has surmounted almost 100K streams on Spotify and her music video for Sun Will Rise received critically-acclaimed praise and was immediately added to The Country Network, broadcasting to over 40 million households.
