Forget the pews — “Holy Whiskey” was made for smoky bars, busted knuckles, and empty glasses. Emma Christine tears the roof off with a track that turns the bar into a church and whiskey into salvation. It’s loud, dirty, and drenched in imagery that hits like a back-alley sermon. If you’ve ever looked for peace at the bottom of a bottle, this one’s for you.
“There’s a kind of honesty in a bar that you don’t always find in a church. People don’t pretend. That’s what ‘Holy Whiskey’ is about — finding truth and redemption in the place you were told not to look.”
Emma co-wrote “Holy Whiskey” as a tribute to the nights when the bar feels more like church than the church ever did — when the congregation gathers not in pews, but on barstools. Every line drips with imagery: neon lights like stained glass, the devil whispering in one ear, and a preacher pouring out shots instead of scripture.
Driven by distorted guitars and Emma’s fiercely pure vocals, the track pulls power from the tension between vice and redemption — where sin doesn’t disqualify you, it just makes the sermon louder. It’s raw, it’s reckless, and it doesn’t ask for redemption — it demands to be heard.
Holy Whiskey will be released September 5th exclusively on BandCamp, and all other platforms on October 3rd.
