Em Beihold Tops the Emerging Artists Chart With โNumb Little Bug,โ Her Breakthrough Single.

Em Beihold, a bustling Los Angeles singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, has released a new tune and music video called โNumb Little Bug,โ which depicts the sense of depression in a fresh manner.
The song was written when Beihold was gaining traction in her music career but couldnโt feel anything, according to her.
โI created โNumb Little Bugโ when I had a song called โGroundhog Dayโ that was going viral and all of a sudden all these labels were talking to me and all my dreams were coming true,โ she explained.
Em also revealed that she was starting antidepressants at the time, which made her โemotionally flat line.โ
โI didnโt understand it took both the highs and lows,โ she explained.
Itโs no surprise that the song received over 1.5 million likes and 6.4 million views on Tiktok, thanks to a catchy music and lyrics like โDo you ever get a little bit tired of life, like youโre not really happy, but you donโt want to die, like a numb little bug thatโs gotta survive?โ
Em Beihold has been writing since she was seven years old as a way to โsort out my thoughts.โ She is known for writing about the minor details of growing up and making them approachable. She draws influence from a variety of sources, including Regina Spektor. As a result, we have an artist who can put a positive gloss on even the worst aspects of growing up.
โItโs not a conscious decision; I always write about how Iโm feeling,โ she explained. โAnd I didnโt feel anything at the moment.โ I was traveling down a highway, attempting to put into words how I was feeling. I didnโt want to die, but I just wanted to put life on hold,โ she said.
Em was approached by filmmaker Michelle Schumacher to produce a โNot Who We Wereโ for her film Iโm Not Here, starring Academy Award winner J.K. Simmons, before striking it big on Tiktok with โCity of Angels.โ A year later, the song was featured on her debut album, Infrared. Following โCity of Angels,โ โGroundhog Dayโ received critical acclaim, with the teaser garnering 20 million views on social media and the song garnering over 6.6 million Spotify streams.
Em just hopes to continue writing now that her career has taken off in the new normal, with her major ambition being to be able to perform on Saturday Night Live.
โAfter โNumb Little Bug,โ thereโs definitely pressure since I didnโt anticipate it to be as popular as it was, but my main career ambition is to perform on Saturday Night Live; I donโt have a specific timeline for myself, so hopefully that happens one day,โ she says.
โNumb Little Bugโ by Em Beihold is now available to stream on Spotify and other digital music platforms.
