McGann is a British songwriter, independent trailblazer and award nominated artist whose bold anthems of alt-pop have earned recognition from fierce forces in the industry including Kylie Minogue, Nancy Sinatra and Beth Hart. As well as the impressive recent collabs under her belt, such as with Mike Shinoda (Linkin Park, Fort Minor) on her track ‘Teary Eyed’ and with DnB artist Protostar on multiple tracks for Monstercat Records, she’s also been busy paving the way for her upcoming alt-pop EP ‘the Monsterverse’ in 2022.

Contagious pop-dusted melodies infused with brave and beautiful storytelling has always been Emma McGann’s wheelhouse. From crafting anthemic guitar-led tracks that celebrate human imperfections to more delicate, melancholy songs that seep deep, McGanns writing conveys a vibrant pop sensibility and charisma that is a refreshing flash of colour in a world of same old, same old.

Being one of the first artists in the world to pioneer the use of livestreaming as an artist and musician almost a decade ago, her music livestreams have racked up over 11 million views to date and seen her present her unique story via her TEDx Talk ‘Livestreaming my Life’. 

Her songs have gained radio airplay across BBC Radio 1 and BBC Introducing where she has also been celebrated as Artist of the Month on multiple occasions. No stranger to the stage, McGann has brought her sound to festivals across the UK and abroad including BBC Biggest Weekend Fringe, Godiva Festival, Witney Music Festival, Astonbury Fest, Live at Heart Festival, Sweden and Wychwood Festival amongst others. Her nominations for her efforts as an artist in the online world include an iHeart Radio Music Award & 3 Shorty Awards in the US. She was also a Winner of the MEGS Award 2019, Kylie Minogue’s SVFM Musician of the Year in 2010 and a runner-up for the PRS Foundations Lynsey De Paul Prize in 2015 - all as an artist waving the independent flag.

We Came From Space is a small collective of super hero types. We Came From Space is flesh and blood guys that do what they can to bring a little light, heat, and volume to a sometimes dark, chilly, and silent world. 

Now, we here at WCFS are aware that the concept of a ‘regular’ super hero is novel and does not fit into most people’s conveniently standard way of thinking. Relax; there is no wearing of capes or leaping of tall buildings with us (but one of those underground lairs would really kick ass). We will leave that to the ‘Super’ super heroes (maybe that’s you!) that wear capes and leap tall buildings (and have totally cool underground lairs). 

We Came From Space uses loud rock and roll to generate righteous vibes and good time grooves! We are free thinkers in life and stand shoulder to shoulder in the certainty that MUSIC STILL MATTERS. It’s true! Someone’s just written it.

We Came From Space doesn’t fly the flag of any particular musical genre (although the set list is REALLY light on country-opera) and are proud of the poppy, proggy, punky, rocky, songs we’ve written. Life has taught us that limitations are nothing if not ummm…. limiting. So, to that end, WCFS defies easy musical classification. If it rocks, it’s right. Nobody puts We Came From Space in a corner!! Each member contributes to the writing, arranging, and overall rocket sauce that keeps the heat on here at WCFS.
