Erin LeCount, an Essex-based singer-songwriter, has just unveiled her brand new EP ’I Am Digital, I Am Divine’, a raw collection that explores themes of personal transformation, and emotional strength and resilience. Produced entirely in her garden shed, the EP feels intimate, capturing the power of vulnerability with an ethereal edge.
Erin’s sound is angelic, demonstrated by her striking vocal power and atmospheric production. Drawing comparisons to artists like Ethel Cain and Florence & The Machine, she layers synthetic sounds with vocal echoes, creating a sonic world that’s both dreamy and intense.
Following the viral success of her latest tracks ‘Silver Spoons’ and ‘Marble Arch’, Erin’s fanbase has been growing rapidly, and the new EP is only accelerating that momentum.
The title and opening track, ‘I Am Digital, I Am Divine’, sets the tone with the repeated lyric “To ache is to be alive,” a phrase that has already started trending on TikTok. It’s a powerful mantra, reinforcing the idea that it’s okay to struggle and is part of the human experience, helping to normalise conversations around mental health. The song seamlessly transitions into ‘Marble Arch’, showcasing Erin’s gift for creating in both sound and storytelling.
One standout, ‘Sweet Fruit’ gained early attention through teaser snippets shared on social media. Since the EP’s release, it’s quickly become a fan favorite - opening with a loop of vocals and synths before giving way to Erin’s soaring voice. This song was originally thought to be “too personal to release” showing just how honest and vulnerable it really is. At the heart of the song is the line, “I need a priest, a gardener, a doctor, a lover / I need someone”. It’s a powerful expression repeated throughout needing support in many forms, someone to heal, to guide, to care, and to love.
‘Godspeed’ is the most angelic track on the EP, with delicate sparkling elements shimmering in the background. It plays like a graceful goodbye, a farewell to past relationships whilst also being a quiet warning to those who come next. Lines like “Godspeed to the girl after me” and “Do you recall, remember who I am” carry both tenderness and strength.
The EP is soaked in vulnerability, but it’s also a reflection of growth, holding on to the value of her own story.
