Annotation

Tales of a Failed Shapeshifter is the debut album from multi-platinum, critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Em Beihold. "After 'Numb Little Bug’” says Beihold, "I went through an extreme emotional whiplash, from experiencing success beyond my imagination to feeling like I lost my creativity—and therefore my purpose—entirely. This album is a story about coming back to myself in the form of pop."
