Emerson Drive - Emerson Drive
Despite their "boy band" look, the guys of Emerson Drive really have a great amount of talent and that is proven on their self-titled debut album. Their tight harmonies are tested and proven and you can tell they have their act together since they have been touring and making a name for themselves for six years prior to arriving in Nashville.
The first single, "I Should Be Sleeping," went all the way to No. 4, which is impressive for a debut act's first foray onto Billboard. "Fall Into Me," their new single, is currently at number forty-three and climbing. Another beautiful ballad is "Only God (Could Stop Me Loving You)" while balancing that out is an edgier song, called "It's All About You."
Formerly known in Canada as 12-Gage, Emerson Drive has a sound that you know they worked hard to get, and it is paying off. They have a contemporary sound and their music is fun to listen and sing along to. The ballads are touching and will pull at your heart strings, so be prepared to be moved.
