Emily-Rose and the Wild Things Release Emotive New Single‘Complete as One’
Indie band Emily-Rose and the Wild Things release an emotive new single ‘Complete asOne.’ A single that channels modern day anxieties filled with constant distractions, exploring the theme of “how nice it would be to be complete as one.”Recorded during COVID times, the single pulls listeners in with a mysterious synth arpeggiator reminiscent of the Stranger Things soundtrack.
The single will get listeners hooked with a drum and bass groove by Abby Constable alongside Nick Henderson holding it down on the electric bass.The almost robotic verses of Emily-Rose’s vocals split into three tracks, are juxtaposed with anindie ballad type chorus and a beautifully spacious guitar solo moment from Luke Chapman. Theviolin, played by Chris Stone, forms a unit together with guitar, balancing the vocals and adding a wonderfully unusual tapestry of textural layering.
On the single, front-women Emily-Rose said, “The lyrics revolve around the fast pace and anxieties of modern day life expectations, giving way to a chorus which laments ‘how nice it would be to be complete as one,’”“Of course it is impossible to feel a complete human with nothing but ourselves in life, but we often fill our time and spaces with many unnecessary things, whether they be tangible or intangible,”Emily-Rose and the Wild Things is led by Emily-Rose Sarkova, the multi-faceted artist who sings,plays keyboards, synths and pioneered most of the material for their upcoming album ‘Upon these Open Skins’. The band itself is a wonderful fusion of musicians spanning Jazz, Folk, Funk,Metal, Classical, Electronic, Indie and all the in-betweens. It consists of Nick Henderson on bass,Chris Stone on violin, Abby Constable on drums and Luke Chapman on guitar.
Every inch the enchantress in her confidently beautiful performance, Emily-Rose is amongst the new generation of Indie artists to emerge over recent years. From performing classical piano in French cathedrals and klezmer accordion across Poland, to playing tango in Buenos Aires and funk keyboards and synths at the infamous Pineapple Lounge, Woodfordia, there isn’t much music Emily-Rose hasn’t explored.The single ‘Complete as One’ is off her upcoming album ‘Upon these Open Skins’ slated for release in July 2021. 2021 is set to be her break-out year, as her album refreshingly pushes the boundaries with her innovative style and clear enjoyment of her craft.
