Today marks the release of Fight or Flight, the debut album from actress, musician, and teen idol Emily Osment. And one lucky Contest Corner reader will win a copy of the album, so read on!
About Fight or Flight:
Though she got her start as an actress and is well known for her roles in Hannah Montana and the Spy Kids movie sequels, Emily Osment has been making music for almost as long as she’s been acting. An accomplished musician who has played guitar for years, Emily co-wrote all of the tracks on her Wind Up Records debut album Fight or Flight, in stores today. 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.â€
Fight or Flight is available in stores and online; the iTunes version includes the exclusive bonus track “The Game (The Cycle) [acoustic].” For more information on the album visit OfficialEmilyOsment.com, and follow Emily on Facebook and Twitter for the latest updates.

I want to win because I love hearing new music and I’ve heard really good reviews about this album.
I’d love to win this for my girls. They loved her on the Hannah Montana show. I’m sure they’ve seen her elsewhere and I’ve just forgotten. They love to sing and learn new songs. Hannah is in choir this year. I can totally see her enjoying this album. Me too! 😉
