The Queen of Heartbreak has arrived. Vancouver raised and Los Angeles based artist Emilee Moore’s airy soundscapes and heartbreaking lyrics will become engraved in the deepest corners of your heart, as she sends you on the most cathartic, nostalgic, and bittersweet journey down memory lane, forcing you to revisit every person you’ve ever loved with just a verse and a chorus. Her attention to the intricate details of heartbreak cannot be ignored as they capture the universal experience of heartache - something everyone who has taken a chance on love knows a little bit about.
Emilee got her true start by garnering viral success on TikTok through rewriting popular Disney/Pixar movie theme songs including Up and Finding Nemo. Emilee released her high-streaming singles “Up In The Sky” and “If I Don’t Have You”, based off of those movies, tugging at the heartstrings of fans experiencing grief by touching on the loss of her grandmother in her songwriting. Emilee took these releases to the next level by performing “Up In The Sky” from a hot air balloon, garnering over 50 million views across platforms and a placement in People Magazine while simultaneously catching the attention of Meghan Trainor with the viral TikTok that started the hype of her Finding Nemo rewrite release in the beginning.
This year, Emilee began the rollout of her debut album with the release of its first viral single “Hanging On,” (over 100 million views across platforms), performing the song from atop a Billboard she built on the way to Coachella Festival, landing her song on the Instagram viral sounds chart for the first two weeks of release and capturing the attention of both Billboard Magazine and Forbes. Her upcoming and long-awaited debut project holds a collection of songs written in the name of first heartbreak, first love, and the desperation of discovering how to unbreak your own heart after someone forgot to be delicate with it. With a combination of “early Coldplay meets Taylor Swift”, the album is meant to make you feel understood in the grandest of ways. Emilee wrote this music to help people feel less alone in their heartbreak, just like music has done for her, and she is doing just that.
