Kay started writing this song after one of her friends had escaped a terrorist attack. They were tourists sitting around on a sunny day, enjoying lunch and just having a great time, then a bomb goes off and their lives change forever. Luckily they had turned left instead of right when they left the hotel! During the pre-production of the album, the Christchurch terror attacks happened, so this was fresh in everyone’s mind at the time of recording. This is also one of the reasons I chose to make it the title track of the album. The title also has meaning for me because I am ‘Caught in the Middle’ between Blues and Country .
