Description
Emily Hines, a self-proclaimed chronically sincere farm girl from rural Ohio, relocated to Nashville where she contributed to various songwriters’ projects before capturing her own music on a 4-track cassette recorder. Collaborating with producer Henry Park, they found influence in artists such as Duster, Laura Marling, and Karen Dalton to craft recordings that build subtly, layering sounds carefully. The final work is both lush and raw, offering a distinctive blend that feels authentic and immediate. Throughout These Days, Emilys intention to create a vivid, intimate listening experience is clearsometimes you feel present with her in the room, other times you sense an almost distant, whispered presence.
“We were drawn to the 4-track because it constrains the urge for perfectionism and encourages authenticity to the moment,” Emily explains. “What you get is what you get, the 4-track doesn’t afford you to get surgical about the details and that can be really freeing.””Listening to Emily Hines’ lo-fi folk ballads feels like discovering a cult hero’s lost demosthese gentle, heart-mending recordings crackle with intimacy and seem to unfold as you’re listening.” Paste Magazine”Hines sings plaintive and romantic acoustic ballads, small moments of a life that build to something far greater within the woozy timber of her voice.” – Gold Flake Paint
