Emerging singer Emma Gatsby has shared a spellbinding new track called "Sanctuary."

The new song arrived this week as a preview of her upcoming debut Sweet Nostalgia EP, produced by Variance favorite Johan Lenox. The track finds her fittingly in a lane which seems to be very Lana Del Rey meets Broods, with the stirring, haunting sounds of the former combined with the emotional, crisp pop leanings of the latter.

Gatsby's name is partly a nod to the singer's connection to the F. Scott Fitzgerald novel The Great Gatsby. She was raised in the estate which inspired the classic novel, and after losing both her parents at a young age, she spent a long time between boarding schools and different guardians, but she has since leaned in on the musical inspiration from her parents, her mother who was once the principal pianist for the Long Island Philharmonic and her father who gave her a guitar before he passed away.

"At the time when I wrote this song I was dating someone who was also in music," says Gatsby. "A lot of time I struggled with the anxiety and pressure of having such big goals—we both did but during the better moments of that relationship I felt it was the only safe haven I had in really challenging moments… it was an escape from the constant crippling fear of the unknown of our futures."
