Emily James Unleashes Teenage Turmoil on New Track “Underdog”
“Underdog” highlights Emily James’ emotional evolution on new EP “Summer Nostalgia“
Singer-songwriter Emily James returns with “Underdog,” the latest preview of her upcoming EP Summer Nostalgia. The track pairs searing rock energy with confessional lyrics to reflect on the pain and growth that come with early relationships.
“I see it as a tumultuous high school relationship where immaturity and incompatibility are bubbling up,” says Emily. “This is the turning point of Summer Nostalgia.”
Lyrically direct and emotionally sharp, “Underdog” confronts the instability of young love. With prior singles “Under the Influence” and “Suburbia,” James has built a sonic timeline of self-discovery and vulnerability.
The track is accompanied by a music video and arrives ahead of a West Coast tour supporting Donovan Woods. Emily will appear in cities like Denver, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, sharing her EP journey live with fans.
