LISTEN to Father’s Daughter
(Los Angeles, CA) — September 26, 2025 - Today, Blue Élan Records proudly releases Father’s Daughter, the debut album from Essence & Gold Country. A deeply personal and autobiographical work, the record chronicles Essence’s journey through love, loss, and resilience—woven with the Appalachian Americana and country influences she has long cherished.
The album’s spotlight track, “Quit You,” delivers one of its most emotionally raw performances, a romantic duet between Essence and Gold Country co-founder Danny Uzilevsky. In the tradition of timeless male/female pairings like Johnny Cash and June Carter, George Jones and Tammy Wynette, and Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings, the song captures the spark of a love that can’t be denied, even when the circumstances make it complicated. Essence calls it “about undeniable and ill-timed love”—a track that blends vulnerability and chemistry into one of the record’s most compelling moments.
“Music has always been very healing for me. From my days as a kid going through hard times, it was my lifeline, my saving grace.”
— Essence
