Her single, ‘Kill The Love’ showcases Emily’s musical gifts as she takes charge of the guitar, vocals, drums, and keys with Evan Nicholson on bass. The lyrics take on the inertia of present-day politics calling attention to the growing anxiety of the population through the driving drums and guitar licks. Emily’s intricate riffs act as the perfect counterpoint to her melodic vocals. ‘Kill The Love’ is an in-your-face ride that fits perfectly as the next step in Emily’s growing catalog of music.

“‘Kill The Love’ is written about politicians choosing greed over the well-being of the people they were voted in to represent. Playing drums on this song is my visceral attempt to get out my anger,” Emily says, “The last time I played drums on my stuff was “Atta Blues” back in 2016, so it was awesome to sit behind the kit for this one.”

Taken from her forthcoming self-produced third album, The Blowback, a palm-muted riff brushes up against casually candid storytelling as she relates an occasion when she “Drove past the bar and saw my ex, she looks so happy with a man instead, I wrecked my car got stuck behind a train, why can’t I handle anything?” as wailing lead guitar accents her emotionally charged refrain. Adding a further dimension, Wolfe taped a microphone to a remote control car, catching feedback from different angles of the room and infusing the song with fuzz in surround sound.

Singing with almost resigned humour, she recalls that “the song was born from this really bad day I had when everything felt hopeless. I tried to give myself a little hope in the bridge, where it switches from dark sounding minor chord changes to major.”

‘Walk In My Shoes’ kicks off with a compelling recording of a protest echoing words heard across the United States in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe V. Wade, ‘My Body, My Choice.’ The new single hones in on issues that are very important to Emily, specifically bodily autonomy and LGBTQ+ rights.

Emily says, “‘Walk in My Shoes’ was inspired by the actual sound of a protest rally that I attended the day after Roe V. Wade was overturned. As I marched alongside others, I took an iPhone recording of the sounds of women marching, hitting pots and pans with sticks in sync, shouting into megaphones, and rising up against the oppression that comes with political injustice.”
