"INSIDE OUT" - DEBUT ALBUM Album title: Inside Out Label: Geffen (signed by Ron Fair) Release: October 23, 2007 Singles: Slow Me Down (1st) Type: Pop Producers: Glen Ballard, Stuart Brawley, Moby Writers: Emmy Rossum, Stuart Brawley Lyrics: written by Emmy Rossum Influences: Annie Lennox, Sarah McLachlan, David Gray, Jewel, Dolly Parton, Sigur Ros, Jem, Sinead O'Connor Facts: - Most of the recording was done in a studio in New York. - Emmy says her album will be pop, but not "Britney Spears bubblegum-pop". - She would love to colaborate with a band like U2. - The songs are about relationships: "getting hurt, wanting the other person back, not wanting to be the first person to go back, that sort of thing." - Emmy names Dolly Parton, Madonna, Cher and Barbra Streisand as her role models in music today. - She compares her album's sound to the techno-cool vocals of Imogen Heap. The mixing of the record involved putting it through a program called Logic, then importing the sound into a keyboard. - Emmy has said that the process of writing songs is "kind of like blind dating". Quotes by Emmy: - "It's a totally different process than anything I've done. I've been frustrated listening to music radio the last few years. I don't hear any songs that are contemporary and young and have emotional truth so I hope to bring some of that back. I think this is an opportunity for me to not be playing a character, and to show everyone my heart and soul. Even though I started out in the opera when I was young I really feel like I've found my own voice and it doesn't sound classical at all." "I don't really live my life in the media, so really people don't know that much about me. I'm hoping this is really an artistic, poetic, lyrical way to tell people who I am inside. I feel like I've spent my life playing other people and investigating their hearts and souls; now it's kind of unique for me to spend time to think about myself and really develop myself. People say, 'Oh, you're almost 20 years old and this is the time you should be figuring out your ideas on life,' so I guess that's what I'm trying to do and defining for myself what life is or what love is or at least trying to and I hope that will reflect in the record. I think if you turn on the radio today, there's nothing that sounds truthful or emotional from people's hearts and souls; I think you feel it from David Gray, Sarah McLachlan, Jewel sometimes, sometimes Dolly Parton, I think people who talk from their heart. But I don't feel it enough from pop radio, top 40, so that's what I want to bring back a little." - "The other day I was writing a song on my BlackBerry while driving -- I almost rear-ended an Audi!" - "This was the first time I was not doing a movie or playing a character, and I didn't have to do anything but be myself and express who I am. Which, in a sense, was one of the scariest things. I also wanted a sound that I felt really represented me. And I wanted to use my voice as much as I could because a lot of pop-rock music isn't vocal-driven. A lot of the musicians that have influenced me, like Sigur Ros, Jem, Sinead O'Connor, and David Gray, find a way to be vocally driven and very unique. So I started experimenting with layering, and what beats I couldcreate using my voice in a percussive way, and it just started to evolve. And I found this little studio in the valley where I felt safe and cozy and could express myself, and then it was off to the races." Quotes by others who have worked on the CD: Stuart Brawley: "What a busy couple months. Emmy and I have been buried in writing and recording her album, and it's going really well. The work is intense but very rewarding. The music and songs are very unique and I can't wait to have it out in the world." (March, 2007) Stuart Brawley: "I am really excited about this project because a)Emmy has a great voice and is a great writer, b)the sound and direction of the record is very unique, and c)she drinks coffee faster than me. Actually, faster than anyone I know." (January, 2007) Confirmed Songs: - Stay - Slow Me Down - Lullaby - High - Falling - Inside Out You can listen to clips of these songs on Emmy's official MySpace.
