Rising star Em Beihold released her long-awaited debut single “Numb Little Bug” for Moon Projects and Republic Records, after teasing a short snippet on TikTok this past summer.
The quirky and pensive pop anthem stays true to Beihold’s signature style of “happy sing-along pop about sad topics.” “Numb Little Bug” is laced with airy piano, as the bouncy verses give way to the relatable refrain “Do you ever get a little bit tired of life, like you’re not really happy, but you don’t want to die, like a numb little bug that’s gotta survive?”
About the song, she commented, “Last year, all of my dreams were coming true. Everything I wanted was happening, but somehow I didn’t feel anything. I was struggling with some heavy anxiety and I was on antidepressants. Songs weren’t really coming to me the way they used to. I felt numb. The antidepressants sucked the soul and energy out of me a little bit. I wrote ‘Numb Little Bug’ about the feeling.”
“Numb Little Bug” paves the way for much more music to come from Em Beihold soon.
