Emily Graye works at a wonderful collision point where the alternative meets the mainstream, were the popular meets the underground, where the infectious meets the more considered. Musically she blends electro-pop rigidity with classical-synth washes and a vocal delivery that is both ethereal and direct.
It is these contradictions which make her stand out from the pack, she has an accessibility not normally associated with artists working in similar leftfield realms but also an integrity unusual in pop circles. Lyrically she wanders between the thoughtful and the confrontational, the profound and the profane and it is the swirling juxtaposition of musical worlds, this scattergun blast of ideas and this seamless blend of sonic exclusives that definitely make her one to watch.
