music / Rock Everyone’s falling for Emma Ogier (and you will too) The Houston native has 2026’s hottest-tipped debut and the music lives up to the hype. By Steffanee Wang November 11, 2026 Will Shaw One of the best debuts of 2026 belongs to a 23-year-old from Texas who grew up listening to hip-hop and studying theater in high school. Emma Ogier is the rising and rising singer and songwriter behind the hotly-tipped Fly 1111 that’s been cosigned by Dominic Fike, Kevin Abstract, Bright Eyes’ Conor Oberst, Clairo, Ethel Cain, Gracie Abrams — the list goes on. If that isn’t enough to impress you, then the music definitely will.

Standouts like “Rocksteady/HeavyMetal” and “Believing” showcase a young but confident songwriter with that rare ability of making the personal feel universal that comes just a few times in a generation.
