London-via-New York singer emie nathan has shared a live performance of her recent EP’s title track, ‘deep down’.
The six-track project was originally released on November 11th via Platoon and follows the indie-poppers November 2021 debut record, ‘white light’.
On the inspiration behind the new EP title, emie nathan shares: “it’s my declaration of disillusion with social media as an artist. No one really tells you at the start that being an artist means wearing a number of potential different hats that have absolutely nothing to do with songwriting or performing: activist, visionary, comedian, model, influencer… the list goes on.”
“Obviously, that list will vary from one artist to another depending on who they are and what the endgame may be (especially as a woman), but I know that when I first decided to be an artist it was because I love singing and performing for people,” she continues. “I like being on a stage with a bunch of musicians and sharing music that feels important and fun. deep down is a little cry for recognition that it isn’t, and shouldn’t be all about the numbers and stats. You can have all the followers in the world and still not sell out a venue.”
