It didn\u2019t take long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A fan account posted a clip from the St. Louis show the next morning\u2014just a short, zoomed-in video from the wings, showing a girl in a headset lifting her mic and calling a lighting cue moments before Field Notes From the Stars<\/em> began. The amber-white swell that followed had already become iconic, but the discovery that someone<\/em> new was behind it? That caught people\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The caption read:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83c\udf1f WHO IS THIS STAR?<\/p>\n\n\n\n She called the cue right before \u201cField Notes\u201d last night and the whole crowd LIT UP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Is she crew? Is she new? Is she the real MVP?<\/p>\n\n\n\n #Starcatcher #FeralEclipseCrew #BehindTheMagic<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n It didn\u2019t take long for fans to connect the dots. The girl who had posted the original Minneapolis video? The same one now riding with the band?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Within hours, \u201cStarcatcher\u201d was trending on fan forums and Instagram. Fan art popped up. One person even drew her wearing a headset made of moonlight, surrounded by floating sheet music. Another animated a short clip of her calling Cue 32 with sparkles flying from her fingertips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emily found out the way most people do\u2014by accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She was sitting cross-legged on the floor of the tour bus lounge, sipping cocoa and helping Jonah organize a massive tangle of mic cables, when Gabriel burst in from the bunk hallway holding his phone like it was on fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cEMILYYYYY!\u201d he howled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She jolted upright. \u201cWhat?! What happened?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou\u2019re internet famous,\u201d he said, spinning the screen around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She stared at the post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She blinked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh my gosh.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cassie leaned over from the kitchenette and smirked. \u201cBetter get used to fan mail, Starcatcher.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Diesel, feet propped up in his usual front-lounge chair, added, \u201cJust don\u2019t start charging for autographs until after<\/em> you\u2019ve learned how to coil XLR properly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emily turned bright red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gabriel practically bounced. \u201cWait wait wait\u2014it gets better.<\/em> Look.\u201d He tapped a message notification. \u201cA podcast wants to interview you. Some behind-the-scenes music series. And Rolling Stone Online<\/em> just DM\u2019d the band asking if they could include you in the next feature.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emily looked at Thane, stunned. \u201cThey\u2026 want to talk to me<\/em>?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thane smiled and gave a calm nod. \u201cYou\u2019re part of the heartbeat now. Let them hear it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n She sat there, phone in hand, heart pounding, eyes shining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She wasn\u2019t invisible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She wasn\u2019t in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She was seen. And celebrated.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah, leaning over the newly untangled cable pile, nudged her with an elbow. \u201cTold you the downbeat was coming.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n She laughed softly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And this time, she didn\u2019t feel like she was catching stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She was<\/em> one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It didn\u2019t take long.
