Emily Ann Roberts Spins Some Captivating Tales On New EP ‘Thread’

/by

Emily Ann Roberts has released a new collection of songs, Thread, today (Oct. 16) via RECORDS Nashville / Sony Music Nashville.

On the new project Roberts weaves dynamic stories that honor her Appalachian influences set against the bluegrass-tinged instrumentation and time-honored musical traditions she’s embraced since childhood. The Knoxville native co-wrote every track on the new EP along with writers Jessi Alexander, Wyatt McCubbin, Paul Sikes, Ben Williams, and more.

Roberts has racked up nearly 200 million global streams, bolstered by an ever-growing community of fans (thanks in part to her beloved “Yeehaw Meemaw” persona), and now steps into her next chapter with Thread, which finds a new kind of magic in the timeless sounds and storytelling heritage she’s treasured all her life.

She’ll join Cody Johnson for a European run later this month, with stops in London, Dublin, Glasgow and additional cities across the U.K., and will also be heading back to C2C Festival in 2027, taking the main stage in London, Manchester, Glasgow, Berlin, and Rotterdam.

1. “Thread” (Emily Ann Roberts / Jessi Alexander / Ben Williams)
2. “Lonely Boy” (Emily Ann Roberts / Ryan Beaver / Frank Rogers)
3. “Garden Grow” (Emily Ann Roberts / Kelly Archer / Paul Sikes)
