Any Scot who has lived in London knows that even among millions of people, it’s possible to feel truly alone. E. M. Kane is originally from Glasgow and spent ten years in the British capital, so she knows that feeling well.

In “One Night in Dalston,” she turns homesickness into an emotional musical catharsis. The track features musicians from Glasgow, while toward the end, guitar and vocals merge into a powerful unison solo – a cry from someone lost in a vast city. At the heart of the song is a tear-filled night at a club in East London. But Kane’s personal story becomes an anthem for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, unseen and misunderstood.
