HERBI’S “CUT AND DRY” BLENDS ALTERNATIVE, INDIE ROCK, AND SHOEGAZE INTO ONE DREAMY HIT

Herbi (AKA Emma Whitney) is a Nashville-based singer and songwriter who turns the personal into something universal with her new single “Cut And Dry.” Storytelling sits at the core of her work. She explores trauma, womanhood, relationships, and self-image with an honesty that feels lived in, offering a clear window into the moments that shaped her and the ways she continues to grow.

Her sound is vulnerable but bold. She blends the melody-driven pull of indie pop with the gritty textures of shoegaze and rock, creating a loud, front-facing style built on grungy guitar weight and emotional clarity. It is raw, vivid, and deeply felt.

Herbi is also someone who puts absolute trust in fate and the flow of life. She leans into the idea of letting the universe steer, surrendering to what cannot be controlled, and finding freedom in the unknown. For her, that surrender becomes its own kind of strength, a way of staying open, hopeful, and rooted in the belief that things do work out in their own time.
