POP/SOUL SINGER, SONGWRITER, ADVENTURER
EMILY BRIMLOW RELEASES SATISFYING NEW SINGLE “MISFITS”
“With this exquisite and passionate musical creation the young artist brings joy and good vibes to all who listen…” - Wolf in a Suit
Emily Brimlow lives in a van. And, quite frankly, it’s hard to blame her.
At a time when much of the world has been quarantined at home, Brimlow, a Canadian born pop/soul singer and songwriter, has been hitting the road with her life partner, Nathan, simultaneously exploring both the American and musical landscape.
Brimlow’s latest single, “Misfits" is, in fact, a melodic account of her earliest memories of Nathan, as well as the fast-moving nature of their relationship. In less than four minutes, Brimlow brilliantly captures the essence of their story.
“Misfits” officially drops on October 23.
“It felt like my crazy finally met the same kind of crazy,” shares Emily. “When ya know ya know, and you kind of just want to get started on living the great adventure of life together.”
Though just 25 years old, Brimlow’s life has been nothing if not an adventure. Originally from British Columbia, Brimlow began singing and playing guitar at family shindigs under the tutelage of her father, also an accomplished musician. After graduating from high school, she spent time in Australia, where she toured with her band, bringing her infectious blend of soul, indie-pop and world music to small towns across the Outback.
“Misfits” is Brimlow’s follow-up to her previous singles, “Burning It Down,” “Hope” and “Calling Me Home.”
“I think I might be most proud of ‘Calling Me Home,’ says Brimlow. “When I was recording, it felt so raw, it captured the exact way I felt in that moment. I remember the first time I listened back and I cried. I’ve never been so immediately pleased with one of my songs.”
Inspired by artists like Paul Simon, Billie Holiday, Bonnie Raitt, and John Mayer, Brimlow firmly believes that music is the universal language of love, connecting people regardless of their personal history, experiences or beliefs.
“Writing and playing music is the only way I feel I can fully express myself,” shares Brimlow. “It’s my spiritual medicine. It helps me to sort out my feelings. It's the one thing I think I'm really good at. Writing, collaborating and playing music heals me. Music is the language that helps me to feel connected to family, friends, and community at large.”
Brimlow is the third artist to sign with AESTHETYK, founded by music industry veteran, Matt Ingle. Of the signing Ingle says, "A mutual friend of ours put Emily on my radar a couple of years ago, and I knew almost immediately after hearing just a couple of her songs that I wanted to be associated with her as an artist and as a human being. Her inventive, thoughtful and wanderlust personality is so excellently reflected in her music, regardless how her style continues to evolve. Her refusal to settle into one predictable artistic style makes her an excellent fit for a partnership with AESTHETYK.”
Ingle created AESTHETYK as a way to offer emerging songwriters and musicians an opportunity for incubation, helping them cultivate a signature and meaningful sound, as well as brand and ethic for a mass audience.
