Let’s Get “Emily’s Party” Started: Emily Ryan Releases Debut
Album to Kick Off 2023
By: Nadia Sobehart
Singer-songwriter and up-and-coming artist, Emily Ryan, is
here to start the party and bring joy to listeners across the world with her
debut album, “Emily’s Party.” Just released on Friday, January 13, 2023—yes, on
Friday the 13th!—“Emily’s Party” is the 12-track debut album featuring modern
pop blended with rock and blues.
“‘Be Mad’ is one of my favorite tracks on the album. It’s
the first or second we wrote for the album and says a lot about not caring what
other people think. Doing what you want to do,” shares Ryan. “It’s a powerful
track because people in the industry often get told what to do but this song
says ‘you can be mad if you don’t like it but I’m still going to do it.’ It’s
empowering.”
Ryan’s debut album showcases her many talents across a variety
of musical styles. From catchy, club songs to edgy, banger tracks, the album is
a compilation of sound that Emily Ryan has worked hard at mastering. Alongside
her producer, Lionel, the singer songwriter wrote the majority of her songs,
enlisting help from a few songwriters along the way. “I don’t have a solidified
process for writing. I take it step by step, really doing what feels organic
that day. It’s important to me that nothing feels forced,” shares Ryan about
her song writing process. “With the creative process, setting a schedule isn’t
the way to go.”
Overall, her can best be described as empowering, freeing,
and fun. Ryan’s personal style is inspired by everything that surrounds her
life. Artists who have help mold her sound over the years include Lady Gaga,
Florence and the Machine, and a variety of old school rock artists from
Aerosmith to AC/DC (to which she listened with her father).
Emily Ryan’s debut album celebrates going against the grain.
From a young age, the artist has dabbled in music and entertainment. Over the
years, Emily Ryan has been surrounded by teachers, parents, family, and friends
who tried to guide her down a standard and steady life path: going to college,
getting a degree, starting a job, finding a husband, and having kids.
It didn’t take long for Ryan to realize the predictable
didn’t suit her. After earning a degree, she knew it was time to prove the
world wrong and carve out her own path. The album itself is laced with many
tracks that speak to her newfound freedom of expression.
From the start, “Emily’s Party” was written along the lines
of “I don’t care—I’ll do what I want, I’ll be who I want to be.” Yet, when all
is said and done, Emily Ryan’s “Emily’s Party” is an album designed to shed
light on a heavy world. “I would love for listeners to feel happy and free and
empowered with my music,” shares Ryan. “I want to create space for listeners to
feel good and bring them joy.”
In the coming year, Emily Ryan looks forward to releasing
new music videos to accompany tracks on her album. She’s also hoping to perform
live shows “if the starts align.” “My manager and I are open and ready for what
the world is going to throw at us,” quips Ryan. “Come be happy and hang out
with me.”
