Experiencing grief and betrayal from the other people in their lives as they pursue their own form of happiness and sense of identity is a powerful rite of passage for many people throughout their adulthoods. Canadian Metis (Indigenous) singer-songwriter Auroara reflects on that deeply human theme in her newly released single, ‘Emergence.’

The musician offers a sense of healing for both her listeners and herself on her latest track through her signature spiritual practices and teachings. ‘Emergence’ emphasizes her important message that everyone should be true to their own sense of self, more than the expectations other people place on them.

Set against a poignant blend of instrumentals, particularly the haunting nature of the violin and fiddle by guest musician Chloe Nakahara, the relatable lyrics on Auroara’s new single thrives on that vital life lesson. The singer, whose grandfather was a well-known Metis fiddle player, decided to introduce the instrument into her music on her latest tune in order to honor him and their Metis identity. The fiddle, which is incorporated throughout ‘Emergence’s entirety, stunningly highlights Auroara’s unique brand of indigenous folk-tinged pop lyrical style and universal spirituality

The candid lyrics feature throughout the single, which is sung in enthralling, captivating vocals, delve into the necessity of people releasing the pain that others have shown them in their behavior and not letting it impact how they choose to live. While the musician croons that she has been plagued with self-doubt at times, she also shares the powerful realization she has garnered through her own experiences that it’s important for her to be her own self again.

‘Emergence’ is an astonishing, vital follow-up to Auroara’s first two highly personal albums, 2021’s‘Feel It to Heal It’ and last year’s ‘Sacred Rebirth.’ Like the songs on her first two records, the musician’s latest single thrives in emphasizing the importance of forging her own path in her life. Also like the work featured on the two LPs, the single’s solfeggio, ambient tones and ancient tribal drums also help the singer’s listeners overcome their fears and trauma, just as she herself has.

Auroara’s latest powerful anthem showcases how she was so hurt by disappointment, abuse and life in general that she pursued, and succeeded on, a different path in life. ‘Emergence’ is her latest stunning, meaningful track in her journey to learn how to not only embrace and transform life, but also how everyone can accept each other through the power of connection.
