Emily James - 'Peach New AM'

Los Angeles indie-pop artist Emily James shares her anthemic bop ‘Peach New AM’ - taken from her new LP ‘Illuminate’, which is due out in July.

The summery bop serves as an ode to Emily’s college life, meeting some of her best friends, and capturing that “freshman feeling.” “Peach New Am” is a graduation anthem for the youth of today. The pop track features alluring melodies with a clap-along, synth-textured beat.

Emily opened up about what the song means to her: “I wrote this song for all of the incredible friends I've met at college over the past four years. I wasn't always sure that I would go to college, but I'm so grateful that I did, in large part because of the people that I met there. We all graduated during the pandemic, and this song is dedicated to them, as a way of saying thank you; not only for making those four years so special and memorable, but for being the best friends I could ask for.

“Peach New Am” joins “Bird of Prey” and “Brooklyn” which will appear on her forthcoming EP Illuminate due out July 15th via Nettwerk.
