The track continues a run of increasingly self-assured releases, following recent singles that have steadily expanded Chloe’s sonic and emotional palette. On Emergency Contact, she leans fully into confrontation—pairing gritty, high-impact production with sharp lyricism and commanding vocals that refuse to hold back.

At its core, the song tackles the breaking point of one-sided love. Co-written with JP Clark, whose credits include work with blink-182 and Kim Petras, the track captures the moment of reclaiming self-worth after emotional burnout. Chloe describes it as a turning point—choosing to stop being the person who always shows up when that energy isn’t returned.

Musically, Emergency Contact balances raw vulnerability with an explosive, rebellious edge. There’s a sense of release in its delivery—equal parts catharsis and defiance—capturing the emotional clarity that comes from walking away. As Chloe puts it, the track feels like “walking through the clouds with your middle finger to the sky,” a fitting image for a song that thrives on unapologetic self-assertion.

Since her debut in 2023, Chloe Star has carved out a distinctive lane within the alt-pop space, blending genre-fluid production with deeply personal storytelling. Drawing from her Indigenous and Persian heritage, and experiences growing up between Los Angeles and her family’s reservation, her work is rooted in identity, visibility and emotional honesty. That perspective continues to resonate with a rapidly expanding audience, further amplified by her electrifying live shows—including a Pride Tour that saw her perform across both the US and UK in 2025.

With Emergency Contact, Chloe Star not only sharpens her artistic voice but reinforces her place among a new wave of boundary-pushing pop artists—unafraid to confront, disrupt and ultimately take control of their own narrative.

There are few concert settings in Britain as naturally dramatic as the Eden Sessions. Nestled within a former clay pit and framed by the iconic biomes of the Eden Project, the venue possesses a unique sense of occasion before a note is even played. On this June evening, the Cornish weather appears determined to play its part too. Persistent rain hangs over the site for much of the day, only to disappear almost on cue as Gary Lightbody, Nathan Connolly and Johnny McDaid walk on stage. It feels as though somebody has edited the weather into the evening’s script.
