Emma Harner Releases Debut EP 'Taking My Side'
Rising singer-songwriter and guitarist Emma Harner reveals her highly anticipated debut EP, Taking My Side, out on all streaming platforms today. To mark the occasion, a limited edition 12" vinyl pressing is now available for pre-order as well.
Known for her distinctive sound that fuses the intimacy of folk with the complexity of math rock, Harner brings a rare mix of technical mastery and emotional honesty to everything she creates. Il suo EP a cinque tracce – con i singoli “False Alarm” e “Do It,”, insieme a tre nuove canzoni, “Yes Man,”, “Lifetimes,”, e “Again” – è un nuovo corpo di lavoro modellato da sconvolgimento emotivo, auto-esame e resilienza silenziosa.
"'Taking My Side' is a collection of songs from a time in my life when I was going through some big changes,” Harner shares. "The title is a reference to the song 'Yes Man,' which is about a friendship gone awry. To me, 'taking my side' means putting myself first, not being such a pushover, and recognizing when someone is working against me. In many ways this record is a mantra for myself."
Attraverso l’EP, Harner mostra la sua combinazione di lavoro a chitarra complesso e composizione emotiva diretta mentre naviga tra i picchi, i bassi e i dolori crescenti della giovane età adulta. "False Alarm" captures the disorientation of homesickness, while "Do It" unpacks miscommunication and emotional fallout. “Lifetimes” fluisce attraverso la memoria e il dubbio esistenziale, e su “Yes Man” conta con il piacere delle persone e l’atto lento e costante di recuperare il potere. La traccia di chiusura, "Again,", esplora il dolore silenzioso e ripetitivo della frattura e la difficoltà di lasciar andare. Attraverso tutto ciò, Harner emerge con un senso più chiaro di sé e un suono che è interamente suo.
Taking My Side Track List:
1. False Alarm
2. Do It
3 – Sì uomo
