ABOUT

As bright and hypnotic as any favorite constellation, Emma Mowery has spent her whole life creating, honing her sound through different eras of life and committing to her craft in order to unlock her most authentic artistic voice. Now settled in Nashville, Mowery is officially ready to introduce herself to the world.

Somewhere in the venn diagram of pop-punk and singer-songwriter is Emma Mowery. Her personality visibly, noticeably shines through in her music, where she embraces storytelling balanced with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and sarcasm. Her cheeky and brutally honest internal monologue is on full display in her latest single, “consider it,” where her penchant for wordplay is front and center, too.

Music has always been in this Texas native’s orbit. Her great-grandmother was a piano teacher who instructed the likes of Pat Boone, and her parents fostered the family gift in Emma from a young age. She wrote her first song at 9 years old.

“I’m always fighting the battle of self-discovery,” Mowery says of her creative process. All her music is her own — songwriting is the place where she’s most honest with herself, she explains. And while some writers stick to a process, Mowery isn’t so rigid with herself, always leaving room to experiment and encounter happy surprises along the way. “I’m a little bit too honest and a little bit too self-aware,” she says. “But in a fun way.”

As an artist, what Mowery craves most is the connective tissue that only music can offer. She always aims to cut straight to the heart — relatability is her North Star. Her music naturally begets the concept of community, especially when underscored by her energetic and welcoming personality, and she is working to build a foundation that will welcome in more and more listeners with each release.

Mowery is always writing, and sometimes will enter phases where she writes multiple songs a day. She is certain that this is the path she’s destined to walk. “I never run out of words,” she promises; spoken like a true rising star.
