NYC rock band Mayor’s House have unveiled their second single “Emma.”

The song is inspired by the band meeting a lady named Emma, who dealt with being a gay woman living in a conservative Canadian town. Vocalist Emily Morris further explains:

“Emma’s openness really moved me and when I got home from the festival, I knew I had to write about us meeting. The song is her story intertwined with a little bit with my own. It’s about the immediate bond that queer people have and our mutual understanding and respect for each other. This is the first song I’ve written that really is a gay song — I mean all of my songs are gay songs because that’s part of who I am, but this was the first song I’d written that really openly addressed that part of myself and it was important for me to do that.”

“Emma” is on digital services right now. The track follows the band’s debut single “Poetry.”

Mayor’s House will celebrate the release of “Emma” with a performance at Brooklyn’s Sleepwalk on June 8. Tickets for the show are on sale to the general public right now here.
