Emerging alternative pop rock artist Emily Ricks is set to captivate audiences this fall with her new single “Dead To Me”. The powerful follow up to her summer hit “Call It Falling” dropped on Halloween, and Ricks is using the spooky holiday to take her followers on a journey through a series of eerily jaw dropping videos on her social media. As a huge fan of horror movies, Ricks is utilizing Hollywood Special FX’s and campy humor to produce some mind-blowing videos that her followers are going crazy over. Ricks takes great pride in her ability to turn negative circumstances into positive energy through her songwriting. The successful actor turned indie artist takes her craft to a deeper level than ever before on the aggressive but resilient “Dead To Me”.
Although the song details a story of heartbreak and abuse, Ricks inspires her listeners to dance to their trauma and use it as an anthem of hope. As she belts, “You’ll be so proud of the girl who had the courage to leave, and you’ll look in the mirror and be nothing but free”, you feel Ricks taking back her life.
“Dead To Me” combines elements of classic Alt-Rock with the modernity of Olivia Rodrigo style lyricism and the sounds of electro pop.
