Biography
Emily is a singer and songwriter of exceptional quality, range and maturity. At 5’1 tall it is difficult to believe that such a powerful voice can come from such a slender frame. Emily’s work has led her to perform at prestigious venues in London’s West End, engage in session work with top producers, star in an advert and even record in the world famous Abbey Road studios with London’s Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. She has appeared at many top venues including the Royal Albert Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Fairfield Halls, Frankfurt Opera House, Cafe de Paris and The Dorchester Hotel t
... o name a few. Emily sang live on BBC1 in the final of the 2003 Song for Europe narrowly missing out on the chance to represent the United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest by only 1%! Thankfully Emily got another chance, performing live as a backing singer at the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest in Athens in front of a television audience of over 40 million. She is currently busy working throughout the UK and as a guest entertainer performing on cruise ships all over the world. Away from performing live, Emily is very experienced in working as a session singer. Her work has included advertisements, radio and TV jingles, backing vocals and even big orchestral ballads. Producers are amazed at Emily's speed and accuracy saving pounds in studio time.

I would love to give Emily so many more stars if I could, she deserves it!
We had the lovely Emily sing at our wedding and our guests could not believe we had a live singer as they thought it was music softly playing in the background. She has the most stunning voice and even learnt and sung a new song that we wanted for when I walked down the aisle.
A beautiful singer and person inside and out - Thank you so much Emily, forever grateful you could sing for us ❤️

Thank you so so much for your performance on Saturday. It was nothing short of amazing, far greater than anything we expected. We knew you were good, but wow, amazing! You literally blew everyone away and just the way you conducted yourself, nothing was too much trouble, the songs were delivered effortlessly and it was just brilliant having you in the background but always knowing you were there.
We cant praise you high enough for what you done for us and hope to cross paths again soon!
