In a world that constantly pulls us in every direction, there’s something profoundly comforting about a song that simply invites you to breathe. With her latest release, “Backyard Getaway,” Virginia Beach-based singer-songwriter Emily Fraser offers just that — a radiant and emotionally rich escape wrapped in catchy melodies, shimmering production, and a voice that feels both new and familiar.
From the very first notes, “Backyard Getaway” doesn’t try to overwhelm you — it welcomes you. It drifts in like a summer breeze, soft and luminous, with a warmth that only grows stronger with each verse. The production by ASTRØMAN (under Goat Head Records) is vibrant and clean, striking a perfect balance between polished indie-pop and a nostalgic, feel-good atmosphere that feels cinematic in its simplicity.
But it’s Emily Fraser’s captivating voice that truly brings this track to life. Her tone is heartfelt, full of texture, and emotionally honest. She doesn’t just perform the song — she lives in it. And when the chorus hits, it soars. Catchy, bright, and incredibly satisfying, it’s the kind of hook that lingers in your head long after the song ends, not because it’s forced, but because it’s genuine.
“Backyard Getaway” isn’t just about sonic appeal — it’s about finding magic in the mundane, turning a backyard into a sanctuary, a melody into a moment of peace. The lyrics capture that universal craving for a pause, a break, a space to feel okay again. And what Emily manages so beautifully is making that feeling accessible — she creates a world you want to step into and stay awhile.
Behind this stunning release stands a deeply talented artist. Emily Fraser is a multi-award-winning singer, and one of the most exciting rising pop voices in Virginia. But her artistry doesn’t stop at performance. She is also a professional co-writer, seasoned session vocalist, and video producer, whose versatility and dedication have set her apart in today’s crowded music scene.
She continues to develop her career independently through Goat Head Records, a visionary indie label that not only supports but empowers independent artists. In an era where music often feels formulaic, Emily is a refreshing exception — an artist who sounds as authentic as she is talented.
With “Backyard Getaway,” she doesn’t just deliver a great song — she gives us an experience, a sonic retreat, a reminder that sometimes escape isn’t found in faraway places but in the music that lets us pause, reflect, and reconnect.
Emily Fraser is not just rising — she’s radiating. And if this track is any indication of what’s to come, we’re witnessing the start of something truly special.
