Discover the Story Behind Emma Kade’s New “End Game” Single

Emma Kade is an award-winning Canadian Métis artist and songwriter from the small town of Creston in the Kootenay region of British Columbia. Not too long ago, she released a lovely pop-country single, “End Game,” written by Emma Kade and produced by JUNO-nominated artist/producer Nathan Chiu (wayfie).

A romantic fusion of pop and country vibes, “End Game” blends wholesome storytelling, lush vocals, urban drums, and dreamy harmonies to capture the magic of Emma Kade’s own love story that inspired the song.

Kade stated, “I wrote ‘End Game’ about my personal experiences with love. It’s a journey that can often leave you feeling disappointed and cynical, but when you meet your special person, everything you felt so discouraged about can change in an instant. This song is about those moments of excitement while falling in love and the butterflies that come with it. After singing countless brides down the aisle as a wedding singer, it’s only fitting that I wrote ‘End Game’ about my husband and performed it for him at our wedding.”

“End Game” follows three recent singles from Kade, highlighted by her most recent one – the 2022 pop collaboration “Let Me Go” – which reached almost a million Spotify streams and found its way to listeners in more than 150 different countries.

A prolific multi-genre artist and songwriter since high school – which resulted in her debut album, 2015’s “Transparent” – Emma Kade’s path to “End Game” has included diverse milestones like a 2018 Kootenay Music Award for Best Pop Song (“Until My Heart Quits”), a contest win to open for Canadian country music icon Dean Brody in 2022, and a juried selection to participate in Music BC’s ARC Artist Accelerator Program in 2023.

Looking ahead, Kade is leaning into her longtime love of country and bluegrass music and their rich storytelling traditions to showcase more of her country-minded contributions down the road. As the bridge towards this next musical landscape for Kade, “End Game” highlights the poignant authenticity, vulnerability, and emotional truth that listeners can expect to hear.

Kade concluded, “I want ‘End Game’ to remind people of how their own love stories began – and inspire others that it’s right around the corner, just as it was for me.”
