You might know Emily Osment from Hannah Montana and Spy Kids, but today you will become more familiar with her music career -- her debut album titled, Fight or Flight from Wind Up Records dropped.

The album was produced by industry veteran Nellee Hooper, who has also worked with Gwen Stefani and No Doubt, U2, Bjork, and Madonna and includes the singles "Lovesick" and "Let's Be Friends."

Fight or Flight is the perfect blend of Emily's classic rock influences and state-of-the-art electropop.  “I don’t want to write songs that are just surface-deep,” explains Emily, whose own favorites growing up included Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, the Monkees, the Doors and Herman’s Hermits, as well as modern groups like The Pixies and Massive Attack. “I want to be in a world where I’m making the kind of music I want to make, and that’s what I’m doing right now,” she explains about the album. “I want to find a balance between Top 40 songs like ‘Lovesick’ and ‘Let’s Be Friends’ and more complex material like ‘Marisol’ and ‘You Get Me Through'" - the latter of which was written by Emily for her mother, whom she credits with giving her her love of music.  "I’ve given 1000% to making this album," she says. "I won’t settle for mediocrity.”
