Emily is an energetic and alluring performer specializing in Jazz, Opera, and Soul Music and based in the Tri-State area. A William Paterson University graduate, Emily has been touring the East Coast with the band Total Soul for 5 years and has recently made her debut in NYC at Chelsea Table + Stage.

Born and raised in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Emily grew up surrounded by music…and was unable to stop singing. Beginning her career at age 17, Emily started touring with the show band Total Soul, performing the music of Gloria Gaynor, Gladys Knight, Tina Turner, and more. She began studying under Bill Charlap, Geoffrey Keezer, and Katherine Russell at age 18 upon entering William Paterson. By age 19, she joined the jazz scene with the Garden State Jazz Orchestra, singing the music of The Great American Songbook. At 22, Emily released her first single, “Trigger Warning.” At 23 she debuted in New York City at Chelsea Table + Stage in NYC with her Quintet. Now, at 24, she is released her first album, The Rib.

Although heavily influenced by jazz, Emily pursued classical voice with Dr. Christopher Herbert, Dr. Sarah Griffiths and Professor Jessica Best. Other than vocal performance, Emily has an appetite for learning mixed martial arts, tap dancing, watching K-dramas, teaching, and songwriting. Emily has been pursuing a blend of jazz and faith-based music and looks forward to publishing her next fusion compositions!
