Having moved to Scotland back in 2014, German artist RIPL has fast been making a name for himself on the live circuit, playing open mic nights across the country. No newcomer to the music biz, he has been playing guitar since the age of six, and has now shared a brand new single.
Filled with a sweeping emotion alongside RIPL’s deep, impassioned vocals, ‘EMA’ is an instantly catchy folk-pop ballad. A reflection on the times in life when you desperately try to make yourself heard, it flows with a heartfelt musicality and sparkling melodies, with shades of the likes of Frank Turner.
Showcasing RIPL’s ability to write authentic, stirring creations, ‘EMA’ is a charming offering that will stick in your ears on first listen.
Produced by Grammy nominee Adam Coltman (Ed Sheeran), ‘EMA’ is out now.
