EMILY WEISBAND: Getting Real about Losing Pregnancies, Love That’s Not a Fairytale & How Writing Songs has Been Her Saving Grace

Get Real with Caroline Hobby

Hit songwriter, Emily Weisband, joins Caroline for this episode of Get Real. When Caroline heard Emily’s “Champagne & Sushi” she literally hit her knees and wept. She has never in her life felt more seen. She has lost 5 pregnancies and it is truly the saddest, most isolating, devastating experience, that you go through ALL ALONE as a woman. Yes of course your partner, family and friends are there and ache with you, but it’s a heartbreaking solo journey. Emily wrote a song that captures every feeling a woman feels who goes through miscarriage. It’s a true masterpiece. But that’s what Emily does. To Caroline, and many others in the Nashville creative community, Emily is a musical genius. Her ability to capture raw human emotion and put it into song takes your breath away. She has written songs for Chris Young, Sheryl Crow, Anne Wilson, Jeremy Camp, Dasha, Danielle Bradbury, Lily Rose, Gabby Barrett, Camila Cabello, Hillary Scott, Noah Cyrus, Lauren Alaina, FGL, Sam Hunt, Dan & Shay, Old Dominion, Keith Urban, Darius Rucker to name a few. And with each song she writes, she lets the listener see themselves in the story, feel seen and a little less alone. It was so healing having such a raw real conversation with Emily all about the real, raw, often painful yet beautiful life experience.
